New WWE Film "The Condemned" On Track To Bomb

According to preliminary Friday estimates on The-Numbers.com, "The Condemned" is on track for a very disappointing first weekend.

The film grossed an estimated $1.4 million for eighth place Friday night, which amounts to a mere $606 per theatre. By comparison, WWE's other films, "The Marine" and "See No Evil," grossed $2.4 million ($930 per screen) and $1.7 million ($1338 per screen) in their first days.

While "The Condemned" reportedly received the best internal reaction from WWE, it was universally panned by critics. Based on the DVD performance of "The Marine," the film still has a shot at success in the video market, but the opening weekend box office, which will likely be under $5 million, is on track to be very poor.

Last week's winner "Disturbia" has a shot at a third straight week atop the charts; it led all films with $3.2 million Friday night. New films "Invisible," "Next" and "Kickin' It Old Skool" followed with $3 million, $2.3 million and $.9 million for second, third and eleventh, respectively.

I don't see why.

I saw it on Friday night, it wasn't bad at all. I mean it wasn't an Oscar winner, but its a fucking action film.

If you don't like action movies, you won't like this. Also, if you go into the movie expecting more than getting to watch Austin kick ass, you're going to the wrong movie.

If you want a movie like this with plot watch Battle Royale. Or for a bit of a cheesier movie Series 7: The Contenders.

I would suggest the Running Man as another one of these kinds of movies with plot, but I would only recommend the book.

This one has the basics of a plot, but the plot is just the excuse to film a movie full of really violent, kick ass fight scenes.

The plot sounds similar to the book The Most Dangerous Game. A certain number of people in a remote location having to hunt one another. I want to see it but at best it doesnt sound like an academy award winner but i looks entertaining.

I do love action films. I haven't seen this but I didn't have any desire to either. The other 2 WWE films have been pure and utter crap! I don't see how this one would be any different.

I haven't seen the Marine, but See No Evil was pretty alright. It had what one looks for in a horror film, and Kane played a convincing psychopath.

The thing with these movies that's really goo, is while the story sucks, the wrestlers are actually doing well in their roles.

Entrance Theme: "Sober" by P!nk

Entrance Description: The lights dim for a moment as "Sober" Plays. Moments later, a spotlight hits the stage and reveals Angel standing on the stage. She slowly walks down to the ring and slides in, before hopping onto the top rope and peering into the crowd. She hops down and warms up slightly as she awaits her opponent

Chracteristics of the Gimmick: Born in London and raised in Manchester, Angel had what many would call a charmed life growing up. But she was always disgusted with how the people around her were, in her words "Slaves to their own greed." At the age of 15, she moved to the united states to live with a relative. She began training 2 years later in "The Chamber" under Damian Seth (Who has also trained Syn and Kai). She is very driven and determined.

1) Snap Suplex
2) Leg Lariot
3) Spin Kick
4) Running Jumping Knee Strike
5) Shining Wizard in the corner, followed by a bulldog
6) Roundhouse Kick

8) Tilt a whirl Backbreaker
9) Bridging German Suplex
10) Fujiwara Armbar
11) Corkscrew plancha over the top rope
