Mac and Me - Box Office and Shelved Sequel

Box Office and Shelved Sequel

Mac and Me, distributed by Orion Pictures, grossed $6,424,112 in the United States.

The film was heavily criticized for being, among other things, similar to other films of the day, most notably E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

The film ends with a freeze frame and the words "We'll be back!" superimposed, but after abysmal reviews and dismal box office returns, the planned sequel was shelved.

Famous quotes containing the words box, office and/or sequel:

    I am no source of honey
    So why should they turn on me?
    Tomorrow I will be sweet God, I will set them free.

    The box is only temporary.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    ‘Tis all men’s office to speak patience
    To those that wring under the load of sorrow,
    But no man’s virtue nor sufficiency
    To be so moral when he shall endure
    The like himself.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Though the Jazz Age continued it became less and less an affair of youth. The sequel was like a children’s party taken over by the elders.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
