I think the main reason they pushed for Wrinkle instead of CR is because Disney thought they could push all their movies to 100M. By the time Christopher Robin could have gotten help through fudging, Nutcracker utterly flopped, so Disney had no incentive to keep their film going.

Jumanji and Greatest Showman didn't have previews either. And considering this is a high-profile release, I would expect they would have up at least some Tuesday shows by now if Disney was going to do them.

There aren't any previews for Poppins. Outside of a fan event, which are only in a few theaters, it's not getting any previews on Tuesday.

Guess it's time for 2019 predicts. 1. Glass 2. The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part 3. What Men Want 4. Alita: Battle Angel 5. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World 6. Captain Marvel 7. Us 8. Dumbo 9. Shazam 10. 4vengers 11. Detective Pikachu 12. Aladdin 13. Godzilla: King of the Monsters 14. Rocketman 15. Dark Phoenix 16. The Secret Life of Pets 2 17. Men in Black 18. Toy Story 4 19. Ford v Ferrari 20. Annabelle 3 21. Spider-Man: Far From Home 22. The Lion King 23. Once Upon A Time in Hollywood 24. Hobbs & Shaw 25. It: Chapter 2 26. The Kitchen 27. Abominable 28. Joker 29.

Dang, we got a dark horse ladies and gentlemen.

Can't wait for it to turn Chalabae into the new DiCaprio. (And I guess Rebecca Ferguson too. Just wanna be charitable to @Alli)

I still want that Haunted Mansion movie made (yes I know Crimson Peak is basically that, shut up). The Eddie Murphy movie is awful trash garbage, and the ride deserves so much more than that filth, and it should be made from a brilliant creative like him.

...I'm genuinely curious what the post was.

Does The Tick count?

Having Ali explain the situation definitely helps, but I think it also helps that Viggo's not a very popular figure. The last commercial movie he was in was Hidalgo, or I guess Appaloosa if you want to be charitable. If it was Tom Cruise or something who accidentally blurted out the n word, things would probably be different. This also applies to Schrader. Only movie nerds like us know who he is, so it'll likely blow over and Hawke won't be affected that much. Original Screenplay on the other hand could be different.

Seems expected, but good for all openers. Also, this Sunday, Grinch will officially be the 200th 200M domestic grosser...yay?

@WrathOfHan and @Morieris are right. Ralph Breaks the Internet is better than Wreck-It Ralph (of course I just think the first Ralph's pretty average, so maybe that's not saying much. )

He gave his full thoughts on Letterboxd. Got me hyped https://letterboxd.com/demiadejuyigbe/film/mary-poppins-returns/

https://pro.boxoffice.com/long-range-tracking-kid-king-serenity/ Kid: 15/50 Serenity: 10/30 Engines: 13/46 (-7%) Mule: 16/80 Spider Verse: 30/135 (+3%) Aquaman: 58/212 (+6%) Poppins: 38/320 There’s also something called Arctic Dogs opening on the 19th of January...do people know what that movie is? Anyway, that’s at 5.5/17

The Amazon preview numbers will count for the total, but likely not for the opening weekend. Just as its own separate thing Jumanji and Hotel Transylvania 3's BOM pages list their Amazon previews on a separate day.

It's weird they waited this long to upload the trailer publicly. I got the trailer in front of Halloween a month ago.

I believe the next trailer will be centered on Gidget.

In your subjective opinion.

Sadly DW hasn't done this as much anymore, and the only other arguable comps are BP and IW which are hundreds of posts away, and I can't be bothered to do it. But it seems good for a lot of movies. Spider-Verse has only been on sale for three days (maybe two if DW only has Wednesday and Thursday results), so it getting close to 100K in a short timespan is very, very good. Also good that Mary Poppins is reaching 200K in only 5 days. Aquaman's been out longer at 11 days, but that's also really strong as well. Bumblebee seems pretty weak, as does Mortal Engines.

A lot of tweets seem like "good not great" material. It'll still be positive, but reviews will probably be more 7/10 than 9/10.

That seems good for SV, MPR, and AM, right?
