  1. I'll ask you this one more time. If you believe this website is full of biased hater trolls who go out of their way to hate everything DC, why do you still regularly post here? The beautiful thing about the Internet is that there are hundreds of other places to discuss box office and DC that don't have Marvel trolls, and fit your sensibilities. If you want to waste your time getting mad at people who think Justice League isn't doing good box-office wise, be my guest, but it seems a bit unproductive if you ask me.
  2. Ferdinand 16 1065 1.50% Star Wars 3208 4330 74.09% Greatest Showman 4 1562 0.26% Fifty Shades 43 1921 2.24% Just about 60% or so of Star Wars showtimes are sold out. Great, if expected, sign.
  3. It's actually up already, at least in my area. Pretty much every Regal theater near me has showtimes up, though nothing for AMC or any other chains. I assume the rest will be rolled out by next week at the latest.
  4. Gotta admit, having Ignition (Remix) in the song list is pretty...awkward.
  5. Even more reactions in the following link: http://www.slashfilm.com/jumanji-welcome-to-the-jungle-early-buzz/ Gotta say, I wasn't expecting this kind of reception.
  6. I distinctly remember when my Mom and I were at a movie, the trailer for PP3 ended with the tagline "Last Call Pitches," and my Mom died laughing because of how "clever" it was. It was then when I realized my Mom's a loser.
  7. I feel it'll go for a La La Land style expansion. 4 theaters, then ~200, then 600-800 come Christmastime, then around the 1,000 mark in January.
  8. I enjoy weekends like these, where almost everything reaps some form of benefit. Obviously, Coco did super impressive. It didn't do quite as amazing as Moana did, but considering Coco was a much harder sell, it's good to see it at least beat out Tangled (at least when it comes to estimates) Hopefully, that A+ Cinemascore helps the movie achieve amazing legs before Star Wars, Ferdinand, and the other Christmas flicks take away attention from families and general audiences. Justice League's drop isn't completely awful, especially compared to the 2nd weekend drops for BvS and Suicide Squad, but I don't think it's something WB should breathe easy about, especially considering the total's still not up to my and many others expectations. I'm still not one of those "DCEU IZ DED" guys, but I feel a few changes in their current development schedule are inevitable. In the case of the holdovers, everyone else did wonderful. Wonder is showing great staying power, Thor: Ragnarok is inching ever closer to the triple century mark, and Daddy's Home and Orient Express are still neck and neck with one another, and staying absolutely steady from last week is absolutley remarkable. Hopefully at least one of them joins the century club this year, for genre diversity's sake. The Star and Bad Moms also held well. In the latter's case, I guess opening on the first of November wasn't much of a hindrance, considering how the film doesn't seem to have that much of a drop gross-wise to the first Bad Moms. Specailty-wise, Roman Israel did...whatever, while Three Billboards and Lady Bird did very well with their expansions, and both will likely still do well throughout the rest of the awards season. Darkest Hour also saw a pretty decent opening. Of course the real standout was CMBYN. A PTA just under Moonlight is awesome, and hopefully this bodes well for a Moonlight-esque run during awards season. So yeah, lit weekend all around.
