A $100 million action flop booted out of the box office Top 10 after 3 weeks by the re-release of a movie that bombed 30 years ago

With each ing day, the gloriously stupid tagline of “They’ll Die When They’re Dead” is getting more and more fitting for EXPEND4BLES, because there’s surely no chance the band will be getting back together for a fifth outing after the long-awaited fourth installment cratered at the box office.

Fully deserving of its woeful 13 percent Rotten Tomatoes score, the abysmal reunion of Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, and the rest of the aging action stars faced an uphill struggle anyway to convince audiences that dusting off a franchise sitting on the shelf for close to a decade was worth making a trip to the theater for, with Lionsgate’s $100 million investment on the production looking very risky.

After three weeks in theaters, director Scott Waugh’s dismal shoot ’em up has barely made it past $27 million in global ticket sales, and that’s not even the worst of it. After just three weeks on the domestic Top 10, the trigger-happy turd has been kicked out by the re-release of a movie that bombed 30 years ago.

Sure, it still out-earned EXPEND4BLES this past weekend by almost $500,000 to take 10th spot on the rankings, pushing the elder statesmen of action cinema down to 11th.
