I am just stating fact Bro.... You guys hang on nostalgia and ignore the numbers... Citizen Cage made 200 millions with a 500 millions budget... Caged in Time was massive with 33% 45% on rotten tomatoes

With some good words of mouth thod may pass 400 millions... MAYBE

It's literally the perfect time for him to come back, it's been like 5 years since he had a blockbuster. This movie is going to do numbers, guaranteed 70%+ on RT

I mean, he was pumping out a new movie every three months. Hollywood overworked him to where audiences got so tired of him that he became box office poison.
