Invisible Man is excellent. Hope it breaks $100M.

On what did he work with Weinstein on for so many years?
He was his exec

It's sort of ironic that Jason Blum, the man who worked with Harvey Weinstein for so many years, produced a #MeToo era thriller pretending that these issues are important to him 😅. He has done a fabulous job of monetizing social issues.

How do you figure with a shoe-string budget?
Blumhouse always lies about budgets. Upgrade cost $12m, not $3m. IM probably cost north of $20m. Still pretty cheap, but it's not $7m.

How did Portrait of a Lady on Fire (one of the 10 best films of the last decade) do?

Valentine's Day is basically a box office Holiday. So coming off a holiday, its likely to drop. Everything seems like will drop.
Also a lot of businesses were off after lunch on Friday due to the long holiday

Sad this is doing so poorly, was pretty great.
An egg sandwich stole the movie.

Note to Hollywood: stop shoving Margot Robbie down our throats.

Knives Out is over Frozen 2 and soon to be over TRoS. Didn't realised that until now.
F2 underperformed so not surprising.

The Rhythm Section was probably never gonna do well given how utterly generic it looked but these numbers are so pitiful that even laughing at it feels cruel. Between the poor reviews, a marketing campaign in which they did the bare minimum to promote it, and opening the week before Birds of Prey, it was clearly left for dead.
Sexy female assassins (or lingerie assassin as one tweet called it) are played out. It's time to go back to smart and tough female heroines like Ripley or Sarah Connor who aren't about being hot. James Cameron was right when he said Wonder Woman wasn't doing anything new - it's another hot girl kicking ass in a skimpy outfit.

I'm so curious about G&H's Cinemascore. The cinematography and production design are beautiful and the performances are good, but after a strong first half it falls spectacularly to pieces.

Great for BB3. The movie is a ton of fun and a welcome respite from superhero movies.

Omg Underwater cost $80 million???????????????????
At least they were smart enough (if you can call it that) to do Grudge for around $10 million.

All his pretentious quotes wouldn't be so annoying if he hadn't made the year's dullest, most been there/seen that movie. Every Marvel movie is better than The Irishbore, and Joker is leaps and bounds above it. Let's put Robert Deniro and Al Pacino in more mob movies with no women in them, no one's seen that before, that's cinema!!!!

How is 1917 doing at the box office? I liked it quite a bit and found the "gimmick" additive - it made everything so tense and suspenseful.

Little Women should be at almost $30M by the end of this weekend and $60M+ by the end of next weekend. With strong WOM plus both awards season and a dead-looking January coming up it likely won't even need a late run push to hit $100M.
How much did the superior 1994 version gross adjusted for inflation?

What an odd comment to end with.
I'm just not sure why he is choosing those films to compare it to. Those are Sci-Fi action films that opened in the fall, this is an Oscar pedegree film of a beloved novel that opened on Christmas Day. Not to mention, it co-stars Meryl F**king Streep!
I'm not sure what the point was supposed to be?
If he is trying to shame Brad and Will Smith with their lower than expected grosses, Aladdin and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood say hello!Otherwise, those are 3 very odd films to compare, especially given the release dates.....
A try-hard attempt to say a female movie is outgrossing the big male stars.

Only if it gets oscar nods but so far its been shut out of awards season.
It will get nominated. Greta Gerwig has a powerful PR team that has made her the "must nominate" female director. The secret committee will make sure she's nominated for the sake of female representation. Golden Globes are European and Europe doesn't give a shit about this stuff. America doesn't either, but Americans like to pretend they do for appearances sake, so LW will be nominated.

Little Women was almost unwatchable. One of the worst movies of the year. Thank god the Golden Globes shut it out of the drama category, phew! Everything they nominated in both of the major categories was at least pretty good if not great, so that was nice to see. I’m rooting hard against Little Women, it was almost as bad as Lady Bird.
Agree it's pretty mediocre, just like Lady Bird. Not unwatchable but meh. It has similar themes to Portrait of a Lady on Fire which is leaps and bounds superior on every level.

It's crazy that even with those stars and billboards everywhere, only about 500,000 Americans wanted to buy tickets to Bombshell.

A B+ is concerning but there are plenty of cases of movies with that grade having good WOM.

I really liked it, but there's something holding it back from being GREAT. I can't put my finger on it.
