I see that John Carpenter recently trashed Friday the 13th on a podcast:
http://www.cinemablend.com/m/new/Harsh-Criticism-John-Carpenter-Has-Original-Friday-13th-133827.html
Why does he care at this point? Yes, Friday was a slight rip-off but he should be very happy that his slasher formula became very popular in the 80's.
And Halloween was a slight rip off of Black Christmas.

How is Alice going to bomb?
What was that about Alice 2 not bombing?

I recall predicting that Alice 2 would bomb and someone pounced on me for it.

I'm kind of hoping for more a sequel to Season of the Witch.
Season Of The Bitch?

Warner must have confidence in The Conjuring 2 if they are having public screenings for it this Friday. That's a month before release, a lot of time for bad word of mouth to get out if it sucks.

I just feel that no one really seems to like the first movie.
-
My guesses would be
Warcraft
Ben Hur
Ghostbusters
Alice
Tarzan
Now You See Me 2
Independance Day 2
Warcraft, Ghostbusters and Ben Hur feel like the ones I know will bomb, the rest, I think they will but wouldn't put money on it.
edit, forgot about Nine Lives, what's the budget on that one, if it's anything over $30 million, I think it will bomb.

Take out the pervy sex jokes, and the more extreme violence, Deadpool is a refreshing take on the genre.
Don't you mean add more pervy sex jokes and even more extreme violence?

If you don't like The Babadook is it safe to assume that your favourite horror movie ever is Texas Chainsaw 3D?
Comments like this are quite snobby.

I wish Hush got a wide release, so much better than most that do.

I don't think Before I Wake is going to open.

Yeah, the movie's apparently good and all, but I wouldn't be able to take 90 minutes of that in a theater.
Worked for Cloverfields opening weekend.

Suicide Squad's trailer views are insane, it's going to make bank, no doubt about it, and the buzz surrounding it seems pretty great, the Joker is going to be the main attraction obviously, the marketing so far is great, put the emphasis on the Joker and Harley Quinn and Deadshot in the coming months, throw in some more Batman in the new trailers, tv spots and you got gold.
Wouldn't be surprised if it comes close to BvS.
Won't it all really depend on how good Suicide Squad is? What happens if it's on the same level as Batman & Robin or Catwoman?

What are the chances that BvS will be number 3 next weekend behind The Boss and Hardcore Henry?
-
Meet The Blacks will be number 1 this weekend!

I think this is a possibility. 80-ish may not be out of the question.
There is nothing really out this weekend.

I don't understand the hate for movies like this, or for christians itself. I'm very skeptical about God, I find it hard to believe in all of it but I miss the time when I did, I think it was good to me and I think it is good for people to believe in God. I didn't see the first movie, but I watched a christian movie last August called "Do You Believe?" and while it was poorly executed I like its ideas. It basically wasn't trying to convince anyone that God is real, it was a movie about how the total faith in God influenced the lives of the characters, independent of He's real or not. And yeah, I know there are issues between christians and gay rights and things like that, and I stand for the gay rights in this, but I just don't agree with christians being labeled as villains or stupid people either.
That being said, I've heard good things about the first God's Not Dead (not from movie fans, though) and I think I'll try to watch it on Netflix before the new movie opens, I liked the trailer.
The problem is that a lot (but not all) of these movies portray all non Christians as the villains. They also give out horrible advice. One movie has a woman being abused by her husband, the movie has her lock herself in her closet and pray until the problem goes away. Some of them present Christians as heroes for forcing their will onto others.

Do you include MoS in the list of mindless fun? If you do, you will think this one is mindless fun as well.
I would call MoS mindless alright, not sure about the fun part though.

That seems like a douchey thing to say
So is "we don't make movies like THAT anymore" when asked about My Bloody Valentine 2.

The end of Lionsgate. They are sinking hilariously hard.
I don't really have much sympathy for them.
