  1. He complained in the CRA thread about how romcoms are still dead because nobody sees small movies or whatever the heck, and this is just a lucky break. Just ignore him and let him go off on his silly rant.
  2. I haven't paid much attention to the awards race this year, but maybe Supporting Actress has a shot? I believe the only real contenders at the moment are Nicole Kidman, Amy Adams, and one of The Favourite women. Michelle Yeoh could sneak her way in. Constance Wu's almost guaranteed for Comedy Actress at the Globes.
  3. https://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/weekends/smallestdrops.htm?page=DROP3000&p=.htm Looking at the all-time smallest second-weekend drops, at least for 3,000+ theaters, CRA's hold is unprecedented. Everything above it was helped by virtue of having its second weekend being a holiday, like Christmas, Thanksgiving, or Memorial Day in Shrek's case. The only arguable exceptions are Puss in Boots, which had its first weekend deflated due to opening on Halloween weekend, and Brother Bear, which opened on a Saturday. The closest examples when it comes to CRA's case (3,000+ theaters, not opened on a poorly-attended box office holiday, nor had a holiday to boost its hold), there's The Santa Clause 2, Elf, and Argo, and those only dropped around 15%. Insanity. I guess Jon Chu was right that moving this to Netflix wasn't best for this film.
  4. But like...why did that need to be taken down?
