Ehh, I can see Ali finding his way in. From what I've seen, even people critical of the movie acknowledge him as a standout. And again, ultra-barren category. As for Mortensen...well, I'm not gonna say he's dunzo, but Hawke, Malek, and Gosling can breathe a little easy.

Of course on the bright side, it only makes the path for a Poppins BP nom clearer

Closest example might be Fair and Balanced if Jay Roach makes Megyn Kelly sympathetic

Does Ralph break the Internet tho?

Green Book definitely seems like a snub, apart from acting noms. The film's getting weaker and weaker reviews, it's box office is looking weak, and Don Shirley's family is already calling out the movie and its inaccuracies and racism. EDIT: Guess Han already wrote what I said. I guess something I'll add is that Black Panther and BlacKkKlansman are also movies that tackle race and are more commercially and critically successful. Also shows the new voters are really changing things around. That's a good thing.

...not sure what you're implying here.

😬

A critic's job is to improve and add to the conversation of cinema, call out and criticize art and the film industry for a multitude of reasons, as well as give a spotlight to the underappreciated artists and films out there. It not only benefits consumers in helping them earn a greater appreciation of the arts, but it also improves the conditions for those marginalized to either see themselves on the screen (why do you think "representation matters" has been an iconic quote lately?), or give more work for said groups. May not seem beneficial to you, but it certainly does to many others.

He's been on moronic anti-critic tirades before, so I doubt it.

*clears throat* A CRITIC'S JOB IS NOT TO AFFECT OR REFLECT THE BOX OFFICE OR WHETHER AUDIENCES WILL LIKE A MOVIE OR NOT

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/schedule/?view=mpaa&p=.htm https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=animatedspider-man.htm Says PG-13 right here. I'm actually even more interested in the movie now with that rating. More adult-oriented animation is always something nice to see, especially one that's not a Family Guy-esque raunchfest. TBH, I think it'll still do fine with a PG-13. Superhero movies always have a decent-sized family audience, especially Spider-Man, so this will probably still do fine.

Watching Rocky IV right now (It's on YouTube for free for some reason). At the part where Apollo meets Paulie's robot.

Anyway, now that I'm on a computer, I can do some fun "If X follows Y" stuff. If Ralph follows Coco: 3.8 21.8 w/ previews Wed 14.7 Thurs 31.3 Fri 30.4 Sat 22.2 Sun 120.4 5-Day If Ralph follows Moana 3.8 22.7 w/ previews 14.5 31.8 31.2 19.3 119.5 5-Day I wish I could do Penguins of Madagascar (last animated Thanksgiving sequel), but I couldn't find any preview data. Obviously 120M seems like a stretch, given that it's a sequel and it doesn't seem to have the same fervor or WOM as those other two, but Ralph might have an okay shot at getting to Frozen's 5-Day (93M). More likely though, it'll be around Moana (82M) I don't have a single good comp for Creed. The first one as a comp would be above 100M, which ain't gonna happen. But as a shot in the dark, a 5-Day around Good Dinosaur (55M)?

@WrathOfHan We finna make history

That's confusing, because I'm pretty sure WB is the international distributor. Megan Ellison truly is an enigma

I believe Annapurna's only working with MGM on certain titles. AKA stuff that doesn't have have an existing studio partner. Creed's also produced by WB, so I don't think Annapurna gets any of the profits? I could very well be wrong though.

On mobile but Ralph hit 3.8M in previews

I literally said “holy shit” out loud. Incredible number for Creed

@YourMother the Edgelord you can confirm, correct? (Also don't spoil anything)
