  1. Good for JLo. She's more talented than people give her credit for. Sure there's something slightly useless/annoying about her but in a sea of useless and annoying celebrities she's one whose ass isn't fake.
  2. No hits on the album. No one cares outside of her core devoted fanbase. Pretty soon she'll be to old for whatever it is she's doing in that gif, and with no talent to fall back on she'll be over.
  3. This was....ok? Def overrated by critics. It is because it's considered "social horror" since a couple of characters complain about rich people being ass holes?
  4. What a tremendous year for movies. It actually makes you sad, doesn't it? What's the point of tracking box office in this day and age?
  5. You dont have to do a breakdown. We all know more ppl go to the movies during the midweek in the summer which affects wkend #s. be that as it may, it's STILL embarrassing for TLK to make less in its 2nd weekend than BATB even with the former released in summer and the latter in spring
  6. True. But it doesn't help that Once Upon A Time is overlong, unfocused and while sporadically entertaining, ultimately pointless.
  7. The expectation of anyone with common sense who knew it's the crown jewel of Disney's library, who knew it was the 2nd highest grossing film ever after JP when released, who knew it only added to its appeal over the years (its 2012 re-release gross doubled JP's 2013 re-release) via its record breaking stage musical. It's an underperformance any way you slice it. Pulling less in its second weekend than BATB is actually embarrassing.
  8. I didn't care for this movie but it's nice to see it do well. And good for Lily James who is better than the overrated Americans JLaw and Emma Stone. Is there anti-Brit actor bias?

  9. Instead of lame remakes I wish more classic movies got theatrical re-releases. I realize it's expensive P&A wise so it's prob not worth it unless you have an undeniable title. Speaking of which I feel like people forget how well THE EXORCIST re-release did in 2000. Those PTAs 😮 2000 Date (click to view chart) Rank Weekend Gross % Change Theaters Change / Avg.

  10. Beyonce is a non-factor for TLK. Its success has nothing to do with her. Her songs from the OST are all tanking. Me rooting against the movie has nothing to do with her.
  11. A bright spot this weekend is Awkwafina. I hope they start taking roles away from Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence (the two worst BA winners this decade and the worst since Gwyneth Paltrow...another basic overhyped white girl...see the pattern?) and giving them to Awkwafina.
  12. I'm looking at the top 10 and it's truly HORRIFYING. The only studio movie worth rooting for stars an alligator. That's how dire things are: the freshest, most exciting major studio release of the Summer is an alligator in the basement movie. Decades from now this will be seen and analyzed as such a dark time in film history.
  13. Disappointing #s for TLK. This was a strong contender for biggest opening weekend of all time. I blame the National Geographic lions creepily singing with no facial expressions. I also blame poor casting choices like Beyonce who lacks the talent to be anything but Beyonce. People want to hear their beloved Nala, not some tacky popstar.
