Oh yeah, forgot about Christopher Robin. Green Book has all the elements of a 100M sleeper hit. It's won multiple audience awards at many different festivals, and just about every review and tweet about the movie mentions it as a major broad crowdpleaser a la Wonder/The Blind Side/The Help/Hidden Figures/Crazy Rich Asians. I have faith in it. I was optimistic about Widows, but the tracking as of now has the film landing in the teens. It could go up thanks to its reviews and if the final marketing stretch delivers, but it's still in a crowded November frame with a slew of other films also targeting adults. Even with the Thanksgiving frame, it would have to open to Orient Express numbers for me to be really confident in 100M. And I guess with 2019 around the corner: 1. Glass 2. Lego 2 3. What Men Want 4. Alita 5. Dragon 3 6. Captain Marvel 7. Us 8. Dumbo 9. Shazam 10. Avengers 11. Aladdin 12. Godzilla 2 13. Dark Phoenix 14. SLOP 2 15. MIB 16. Toy Story 4 17. Ford v. Ferrari 18. Annabelle 3 19. Spider-Man: Far From Home 20. The Lion King 21. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood 22. Hobbs & Shaw 23. It: Chapter 2 24. The Kitchen 25. Abominable 26. Gemini Man 27. Joker 28. Charlie's Angels 29. Terminator 30. Frozen 2 31. Queen & Slim 32. Jumanji 33. Cats 34. Star Wars 35. Little Women Damn, even next year might not beat the record.

I'm already feeling cautious on putting Creed in the list. We basically have to rely on some combination of Nutcracker/Widows/Instant Family/Vice for the record to be toppled.

Timmy and Steve were fantastic, but the film really loses its momentum whenever Chalamet is off screen. The flashback scenes were especially bad and felt really superfluous. Still hits a lot of strong emotional beats, and it certainly got my fanboy ass teary-eyed. Van Groeningen was definitely smart to let his two talented lead actors breathe and take charge, because with any other cast, this would have been a disaster. Also I know it's weird to say, but Steve Carell was kind of a DILF in this. I've never found him attractive in things before, but his gray beard was just...yes.

It's a slasher film, which historically have weak legs. If anything, the fact it didn't drop in the 60s like Happy Death Day and Scream 4 is pretty impressive. Anyway, Mid90s wide number is about the same as Eighth Grade when it went into 1,000 theathers (albeit ~200 less than Mid90s). Not bad for a movie that had less hype and a weaker PTA.

Daniel Kaluuya?

Is that still a thing, or...?

If you bothered to read the link, you would know they’re basing the 175M off of a 45M weekend.

I was randomly scrolling through Fandango, and it seems there are some special sneaks a la ASIB at some of my Regal theaters near me for the Monday before opening day. Weird, but okay.

Never subscribed, but this is disappointing, although it'll probably be absorbed in WarnerMedia's new subscription service.

Never mind, I guess it is still happening.

Yeah, but said fans skew older, and I don't think we'll see Queen fans create fake Twitter reviews and bots to slam The Nutcracker.

THE V HAS RETURNED

Actually, BR's Pulse sales at this point in time are pretty close to ASIB at the same point in time (one week before release). ASIB is still edging it out, but that was more presales-driven due to Gaga's fanbase. 40+ is pretty likely, with 35+ being all but a lock IMO

Also of note, Instant Family and Widows are tracking between 10-17M.
