Long Range Forecast: 'Grown Ups 2' & 'Pacific Rim'
on May 17, 2013
Joining our Long Range Forecast this week are Grown Ups 2 and Pacific Rim.
Grown Ups 2
PROS:
- The returning ensemble cast led by Adam Sandler. (Is anybody going to miss Rob Schneider? We don't think so.)
- The first film was a $271.4 million global hit thanks Sandler's fans and families in general back in 2010.
- With no major comedies opening after it, Grown Ups 2 could enjoy another leggy run.
CONS:
