Patriot's Day and Deepwater Horizon could have been January releases and still gotten good business. Not great but decent. It was pure hubris to release them in last fall when it was already so packed with Oscar-bait.

Lone Survivor made a LOT of money(domestically) on a reasonable budget so I don't exactly know what the OP is talking about. Also someone else mentioned Daddy's Home being a pretty big hit as well.
I'm not even a fan of Marky Mark but to say he's become the "kiss of death" is pretty laughable and not true.

The "Daddy's Home 2" trailer played before "War for the Planet of the Apes". Have a feeling it's going to be a big hit with the addition of Gibson and Lithgow as their fathers.
I personally like Wahlberg, though I may not see every film of his at the theater.

Maybe BO wise but all 3 Peter Berg movies got decent ratings.

TLK is not bombing, however it is not making as much as Paramount was hoping it would. I wouldn't pin the blame on Wahlberg as the OP is doing but more on franchise fatigue, too much emphasis on IMAX showings( Not everybody has access to one) over-marketing which also spoiled a lot of stuff from the movie, and concerning word of the mouth. The franchise will still continue, as the Bumblebee spin-off is said to be filming right about now or very soon and intended to release next summer.

Neither film you cite has done or did incredibly poor box office, not great or amazing but good enough.
