finally got some sleep after working like 16 hour days. shit was wild. okay so here were my big thoughts of things i can remember (i was at all the presentations and most of the smaller panels). 1. fall guy - i am SHOCKED but i did not like this. i am a huge gosling fan and coming off the reviews from sxsw was so excited but i am in the minority clearly when i say i..just did not find it funny. at all. to me it spreads itself too thin and succeeds at none of what it is trying. if it weren’t for gosling and blunt i would have damn near hated it. i would say the screening seemed receptive but also not like through the roof wom. i still think it will do really well. 2. biggest shock for me - how good michael looks. shit is going to do INSANE numbers. 3. saw the first 35 minutes of inside out 2, a big return to form for pixar. REALLY funny. 4. new apes is being marketed poorly because we saw nine minutes and it was really, really beautiful. 5. speak no evil, smile 2, and alien romulus look scary as hell. especially speak no evil james mcavoy was TERRIFYING in the content they showed. 6. wicked is going to do whatever its cap is. i truly think it’s has a shot at 125 million three day or 150-160 five day. universal also spent a shit ton at the presentation with marketing materials. 7. as someone who’s top three of all time include twister i was really annoyed with the sequel (especially after they turned down hunts idea) BUT THAT BEING SAID. the footage was a LOT of fun and the three leads seem great (daisy is wearing the iconic white tee and khakis in one scene). 8. quiet place looks excellent from what we saw and could definitely break out. also saw an extended scene of transformers one in 3d that was some really stunning animation. 9. deadpool footage was very very funny. a lot of breaking the third wall. those are the big things i can remember it was a crazy week lol.

think it’s a pretty big fallacy to compare them this way. the color purple had multiple factors working against it, and the spielberg property wasn’t one of them. you have what many see as a black targeted film, in a busy season, that also happens to be a musical. it simply had an audience cap which is reflected in the glowing reviews, great cinema score and audience scores, and bad legs. mean girls suffers from something similar. a young female white targeted film with pretty good reviews that is also a musical. wonka has four quadrant appeal, fits right into the ‘holiday vibe’ corridor in which it’s released, and is a musical. but musicals aren’t a monolith. the cast of wonkas net is just so so much wider.

Christmas-New Year Weekdays Thread (12/26-28)

really a shame for TCP. the crowd i saw it with on opening day ate. it. up. and i reallly thought this would catch fire but it isnt. going to need to really level out to reach 110-120. -
more front loaded than i would have hoped but also think WOM is going to kick in fast. les miserables seems like the best comparison here. they had almost identical opening days on christmas that also fell on a weekday. take the true opening day of 15.89 and this fell 55%. Les fell 32% from OD so yeah TCP will really need to have some great legs to have a shot at 150.
