You can't track. This is a free event. Gofobo is a site all about free advance screenings, and note the "first come first serve" disclaimer. I actually did one of these a few years ago for The Edge of Seventeen.

You deserve a rest king. Don't worry about us

Nothing earth-shattering, but still a very good first day that will ensure the doom and gloom predictions that people wanted to see happen were concerned could happen for this movie is nipped in the bud

However, Reminiscence is about 70% of Wish Me Dead at the same point in time, which is...yeesh material.

Dwayne mentioned he was having talks with Disney and his production company for a sequel a couple weeks back, though obviously this stuff is super early. The only real hurdles here are that reception generally seems to be "it's fine I guess", which is never a good sign for a startup franchise, and also that Dwayne keeps attaching himself to project after project after project that it could get pushed to the backburner. Dude is a Lin-Manuel Miranda/Greg Berlanti level of a workaholic and it's genuinely insane how he never stops.

Dude the video's like 3 minutes long. The CGI rock monster just sits around doing nothing for a whole minute. I sincerely doubt it was this ultra expensive promo you're making it out to be.

I don't know how popular it is in India, but here in America, PAW Patrol is everything. I worked in retail the past four years, and it was absurd how much space PAW Patrol merch took up wherever I worked. Was pretty easily the biggest non-Disney franchise. My sister used to work at a daycare, and she told me PAW Patrol was far and away the biggest deal for her kids. When it was playtime, the fights from kids over who got to play with which PAW Patrol toy damn near turned into The Hunger Games. Although it did give my sister the opportunity to teach her kids the importance of sharing. Always a silver lining. What I'm basically saying is that PAW Patrol: The Movie is basically the Endgame for 3 year olds.

Judging by the theaters around me, PAW Patrol's selling pretty well on Friday across most showtimes. Don't want to say anything super definitive until Monday, but I think sales so far do indicate it could possibly reach #1. At the very least, double digits should happen. Only real obstacle is that the film is just...not playing at Regal? At all? Even if you go on Regal's website, the film is not in their database. I dunno if it's a Paramount+ issue, since Cinemark made a huge stink over Raya back in March yet they are playing PAW Patrol, but it is very, very weird. Everything else though is dire, but stereotypical of late August doldrums.

Bad Boys 4 was announced after Thursday previews lol

I mean these types of early sequel announcements happen all the time as a way to help drum up hype. "Look, this movie's already doing so well it's getting a sequel before the weekend is even over! Gotta catch the movie that everybody's talking about!" And while this is uncommon, and Disney+ could help make these a reality, that doesn't necessarily mean Free Guy 2 or Jungle Cruise 2 is a safe bet that's confirmed to happen. I'm still waiting for San Andreas 2.
