As I wrote a few months ago elsewhere, one of the big differences between JacktheGiantSlayerand Oz: The Great and Powerful was that the latter Disney concoction had actual movie stars.
Time Warner said "Gangster Squad" and"Jack theGiantSlayer" fell short of expectations in theaters andthe company had fewer TV shows available for licensing abroad.
They had a rough first quarter, with films bad (Bullet to the Head), allegedly halfway decent (Jack theGiantSlayer) and unexpectedly great (Beautiful Creatures) bombing pretty hard.
