Alright, now I'm awake. Madea's a tough comp, because I don't have any good comedy sequels, or ones from established franchises, to work off of. But I guess considering What Men Want was a remake to a popular movie, I guess low 20s is gonna happen? As for Captain Marvel, From Day 17-Day 11 .343x of Black Panther Translates to $83M using BP's 4-Day, an improvement from the $79.6M from two days ago

Honestly, it's not that hard. It's very clear who are the more problematic figures that try to instigate this kind of behavior. The Captain Marvel thread had people like Gamera and LaughingEvans using MRA speak, and were the main instigators to the Brie Larson debates. People like Pure Spirit were also citing conspiracy theories that Disney were the ones trolling it in order to boost awareness. Especially once the thread got locked, you would think the mods would decide to put a suspension on the people who started this stuff and made the thread a dumpster fire in the first place. But they didn't. Instead, they didn't even get a slap on the wrist, and were basically allowed to roam free. It's really not that hard to figure out who starts these problems.

I'm way too tired to write anymore. Movie/Date Monday Captain Marvel 6,647 11 days Us 148 25 days I'll also look at this tonorrow morning as well. But hey, the link above does have some historical data, so go nuts.

Only 15 months between installments? I'm pretty sure only the Planes movies had a shorter gap between installments

I feel like the Warner Bros. streaming service will do well too. HBO is supposed to be the centerpiece, which is already a good sign, and they're also likely gonna have a bunch of DC and Potter shows.

By the way, Disney+ better give me something Kazaam-related. Movie, series, whatever. It's not like Shaq's doing anything outside of General commercials

Kindergarten Cop: The Series

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=holmeswatson.htm Final run. Domestic Total Gross: $30,573,626 Off a 6.4M OD, it had a multiple of 4.75x. I looked at other Christmas Day openers, up until 2001, and H&W can proudly boast it only has the second-worst legs. Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem garnered a multiple of 4.39x. But yeah, the fact that 47 Ronin had better legs says a lot.

Is it really coming out that day though?

Always love these. Black Panther, Into the Spider-Verse, and A Star is Born seem like near locks. Fallout also seems very likely. A Quiet Place will also be a hit with genre fans, while Crazy Rich Asians seems like something that will still have a good-sized audience. BlacKkKlansman will at least be popular with Spike Lee fans

WB's streaming already got a leg up on Disney+ lol

lol at lordmandeep trying to use me in his "progressives are dumb" argument

Well...yeah. Obviously people not in a certain minority group can tackle what said group deals with successfully and have done so in the past, but I feel it's more effective when a black person directs a movie about the black experience, or a gay person directs a movie about the gay experience. It's more authentic, and comes from a more personal place, and more often than not, even if the movie itself may not overall work, it's able to tackle said themes effectively. It's the equivalent of a professional chef recommending to me a restaurant versus some average guy off the street. Considering the former has the experience and understanding of what being a chef or being in a quality restaurant is like, why wouldn't I prefer the person who lives in that certain environment or experience over an outsider?

Hell, I don't even hate Green Book. It's a perfectly fine dramedy with decent performances and a couple of funny gags. I just don't think it's as good as the other nominees, and I prefer Spike Lee's messaging than Peter Farrelly's, especially considering Lee is a racial minority.

Because going forward with positivity hasn't gone anywhere for society. We've had plenty of movies about "look at how far we've come," but there's still police brutality, hate crimes, and even our own politicians citing racism. Spike Lee made a harsh reminder that we still have a long way to go, and that racism and white supremacy and the actions of the KKK is still a factor in society and American culture. And yes, a movie isn't going to change the world overnight, but considering we just had a Neo-Nazi rally in 2017, I feel like reminding the public how trash the world is is far more beneficial than "look at this wacky white guy learning to love black people". And no, I don't give a shit if the GA likes it, or it has good legs. Good on other people if they enjoy it, but that doesn't mean I can't criticize something, or prefer a "less popular" alternative.

I think we watched two completely different BlacKkKlansman movies. Y'know, unless you consider "contention" between a black man and the KKK as a bad thing.
