They usually drop them in September. Avatar's re-release isn't an exact fit, but better than nothing I suppose.

Will Packer had a good thing going with cheap studio comedies for about 7 years, but then he just kinda stopped. Albeit granted he was tied up with his Oscars ceremony, but it’s weird he hasn’t come back or anybody has filled in his shoes. Can’t be that expensive to make these kinds of movies right?

For those familiar with these markets, are these debuts good?

BTW shout outs also to Michelle Yeoh, the BEST Bond Girl

Legion, go to bed. You don't have to go to bed, this is fine.

They've been doing that for a long time. We just have to accept it.

...okay.

Up and ready. Sorry for the delay.

Discuss...I guess.

That Steven Spielberg will never have a job in this town again

Could have sworn that there was an article that mentioned the movie would go to 1,200 locations, then to 2,000+

3M+ for Bodies Bodies Bodies in 1,285 theaters sounds fine to me? It's above projections, and is on par with Men which was in 2,212 theaters. Getting that in way less locations isn't insane, but pretty decent, and another theater increase next week should get the movie to about on par with X.

Anyways, Audience RT scores Bodies Bodies Bodies: 82% Fall: 83% Mack and Rita: 57% (😬) Emily the Criminal: 82%

The post-credits stinger after Puss in Boots 2 will be INSANE. Y’all think Marvel fans go crazy for this stuff, but just you wait

…sure why not?

After Last Jedi, Star Wars is nothing but fan service over all the iconography that makes all the Gen Xer manbabies go "OMG my childhood". Pretty much all the Star Wars shows were designed to push as much awkward fan service and cameos and legacy characters, even when they are supremely unneeded, because they're too piss scared the manbabies will have a fit again. And although even the manbabies are sick of this pandering, it's clear to me Lucasfilm will refuse to do anything unique and fun with the franchise anymore, but just do the same legacy hits until oblivion, with even the same actors (That Carrie Fisher deepfake will return and it will be awful). The second creepy-ass deepfake Luke Skywalker arrived in Mandalorian, looking as artificial and lifeless as the action figures people used to play with, and all the fanboys were like "OMG THIS IS EVERYTHING I WANTED. FINALLY LUKE SKYWALKER IS EXACTLY LIKE HE USED TO BE UwU", I knew this franchise was screwed forever. Very sad, but oh well.

Dude went from white Thanos to Jeff Bridges in Iron Man lol
