The Hemsbombs continue

Animated movies and shows, with a few exceptions like Simpsons or Family Guy, fall under their own separate union called the Animation Guild, meaning they don't have to adhere to rules from WGA or whatever. But that also means that when it comes to live-action adaptations of animated works, writers for animated productions, I assume, don't get compensated or any writing credits, because they were from two different unions. Linda Woolverton was the original screenwriter for BatB '91, but when '17 came around, the only credit she got was a "based on" mention.

Just the trailer made me start to cry. Can't imagine what the movie will be like.

Tickets are on sale now, with previews starting at 6.

Okay, I found a source, but those 14,000 tickets weren't all used. The offer was only given to 500 Regal theaters, and it was going to be given on a first come first served basis, meaning the first 25 service members who showed up would get in. So already that's just 12,500 tickets if all of them were sold. I doubt all of them were used, and I doubt only vets purchased tickets to the point where it would be around 70% of all the tickets sold. Bit too much of a stretch, especially when it's only 500 theaters out of 3,640 (less than 15%). At most, this promotion only boosted the previews up to $125K, maybe $200K IMO

I know that First Man and Regal did a "Vets get in free" promotion, but where's the source that it was worth $700K or $750K? If there's an actual source that proves it, then cool, but I have my doubts that it's worth that much.

Apparently it's playing in front of Goosebumps 2, but it's not online for some reason.

Weird we're getting rough estimates this morning. Normally this is only done for the bigly movies.

Also of note:

You've posted multiple times about how much you don't care about this movie and its liberal agenda, so it seems like you care. You seem to care so much that I feel like you need to get laid.

Where's Blue Willy? Anyway yeah, this was...a trailer.

Wack

This could be a repeat of Sequelizer vs. Mamma Mia 2

Not as GOAT as the SDCC trailer but still

Using other Columbus Day openers' first Wednesdays as comps: The Mountain Between Us dropped 39% from Tuesday to Wednesday The Girl on the Train dropped 27% That's really good.
