Papa Feige knows to give the nerds what they came here for, and to flex on all the normie producers. Black Panther didn't need to hit 700M, but Papa Feige knew he had to do it for us.

Aaron Sorkin's probably writing up a MoviePass script as we speak.

So I was never really all that attracted to Harry before, but in that outfit...wow.

https://www.boxofficepro.com/long-range-forecast-joker/ Jokah: 60-90 range. 77/175 Angry Birds: 17 (-11%)/70 47 Meters: 13/34 (-13%) Blinded by the Light: 5.5 (-15%)/18 (-10%) Good Boys: 12 (-20%)/36 (-16%) Bernadette: 6 (-45%)/25 (-45%) It: Chapter Two: 138/310 (+2%) LOL at all the drops next week.

So I was prepping up my tables for next week, but I think Angry Birds got moved up a day? Before previews started at 4 on Tuesday, but now all of a sudden it's starting at 10 AM. Is that just a last-minute date change, or is my area being weird?

Following Crawl, it would be at around 28M. Following The Meg would give it 26.4M. Either way, 20M is probably a lock at this point.

YES I BEAT @sfran43 FOR ONCE

That's not bad. A Dog's Way Home (the one with BDH as the dog) did about 535K and A Dog's Journey (the one with Josh Gad as the dog) did 250K.

If it follows Christopher Robin with a better Sunday hold (although that didn't have its previews at 4PM) 1.25 7.9 w/ previews 7.2 (-9.2%) 6.1 (-15%) 21.2 weekend

https://deadline.com/2019/08/dora-and-the-lost-city-of-gold-hobbs-shaw-the-kitchen-box-office-weekend-1202665153/ So that's about -14% for both.

I'm just gonna hope my comp is being pessimistic.
