(official title: Gran Turismo 2) Based On: Gran Turismo, by Polyphony Digital Studio: Phoenix Fire Entertainment, PlayStation Studios Director: Jamie Babbit Genre: Sports Release Date: March 20th, Y10 Theater Count: 3267 Rating: PG-13 Format: 2D, 3D Budget: $60 million Runtime: 98 minutes (1 hour and 38 minutes) Cast: - Unknowns - Ken Watanabe as B-spec Franchise Box Office: - Gran Turismo (08/08/Y9) - $34,108,772 OW / $101,837,642 DOM / $225,083,649 WW Plot: After winning the Y9 24hr Le Mans Race, Hanna, the protagonist of the first film, decides that she wants to become the best motorsport athlete of her generation. The movie is mostly minimalistic in dialogue, presenting a confident, but increasingly pressured Hanna, as she contends in the Gran Turismo World Championship, with races featuring cars all over the world. Her main rival, Yago Cristas, a cocky and irritable Spaniard, tries to derail Hanna through mind games. Hanna never relents, believing that she is better than Yago in pure driving skills alone, and lets herself go in her own conviction. But 2/3 of the way in, at the climactic point, while distracted with intrusive thoughts regarding her rival, Yago bumps her car, forcing her to spin with two flat tires, and making her lose the second-to-last race. Frustrated, she feels the intensity of the psychological game up until the final third of the film, where she manages to get herself back up, after talking to a character from the previous film - B-spec (Ken Watanabe) - that, ultimately, her goal to become the best can be achieved, if she understands that nothing matters more in sports than striking the balance between the physical, the skillful and psyche, the mind, the mental ability to overcome anything, rather than the thought that pure ability can replace or compensate for anything. She puts herself under grueling training, until the moment of the final race. A tight one until the end, she wins by a fraction. In the end, Hanna is exhausted and takes a break, but B-spec reminds her that mentality is one step closer to glory. She embraces an uncertain, but hopeful future, with a new outlook on herself and her sport.

Tbf Cocaine Bear still did a Hell of a lot better than a lot of other horror/thrillers that came out this year. It also comfortably out-opened/outperformed the previous Banks directorial work, Charlie's Angels 2019 (though the jury's out on whether or not misogyny played a factor there), despite having a less bankable cast and similarly poor reviews. But yes, M3GAN is the best example of this in 2023, outside of Barbenheimer. I think a lot of people have "traumas" (of sorts) with internet hype-heavy films since Pokémon: Detective Pikachu (or even as far back as Snakes on a Plane or Pacific Rim), but it's clear that this kind of culture and viral marketing are playing much heavier roles in mainstream cinema nowadays.

Updated as of October 24th, 2023! Keynotes: The Boss Baby 2: Family Business has been bumped off the Top 100 OW's list; No Hard Feelings and Violent Night have been bumped off the Top 100 DOM list; Nope has been bumped off the Top 100 WW list.

It's not a conventional release because it's a fucking 3.5 hour R-rated movie with very heavy themes. That sounds hardly conventional. And before you even begin to say the word "Oppenheimer", how is the context of Barbenheimer and multiple 35mm and other prestige format exclusivity applicable to Killers? Oppenheimer was the outlier, not the rule.

Updated as of October 17th, 2023! Keynotes: Downton Abbey: A New Era has been bumped off the Top 100 OW's list; the opening weekends of both Saint Frances and A Man Called Otto have been bumped off the Top 100 PTA's list; Demon Slayer the Movie: Mugen Train has been bumped off the Top 100 DOM list; Wonder Woman 1984 has been bumped off the Top 100 WW list.

Lmao. Feel bad for Soren (and the non-problematic voice cast), but this seems like a Ruby Gillman-style DOA.

Won't even bother replying, since it's like talking to a wall, but other question: do you do anything with your life, other than create alt accounts on a forum to be a far-right troll? Like... is there anything to your life?

Writing is important enough to success that movies cannot exist without scripts, a lot of movies *coast* on scripts and some of the highest grossing films of all time are recognized for their writing. The book analogy makes zero sense - totally different mediums. But what to expect from Jessie other than morony.

While pending for a small update, I can say that 99% of the OP is updated as of October 10th, 2023! Keynotes: Jesus Revolution has been bumped off of the Top 100 OW's list; the opening weekend of Monica has been bumped off of the Top 100 PTA's list; it is likely that Talk to Me will finish outside of the Top 100 DOM list, despite constantly being just shy of breaking in - valiant effort by the A24 horror there.

But why do you get defensive, though

@SLAM! Made new calendar alterations: - GTA: San Andreas comes out on May 1st with IMAX; - Meme Run comes out on November 27th.

Updated as of October 3rd, 2023! Only one set of keynotes this week: No Hard Feelings and Dog have both been bumped off the Top 100 OW's list.

@SLAM! Please change Money Heist's release date to January 16, with IMAX, taking Monster Bug Wars 2's place

Updated as of September 29th, 2023! Keynotes: the second weekend of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has been bumped off the Top 100 PTA's list; Scream VI and The Suicide Squad have been bumped off the Top 100 WW list.

Updated as of September 19th, 2023! Keynotes: the opening weekend of Sonic the Hedgehog was bumped off the Top 100 PTA's list; Clifford the Big Red Dog was bumped off the Top 100 DOM list; numbers for some of the WW films have been updated (huge thanks to @Issac Newton for that 👍).

Worldwide numbers are updated. These are a bit of a mess to update, since a lot of different sources post different numbers, which is attributable to both difference in regions being reported (The Numbers reports Russian numbers i.e.), and also differences in conversion rates. For the time being, even though I was recommended to use The Numbers, I will continue to use Box Office Mojo as there is not a huge disparity and BOM usually displays the higher numbers, though I do use The Numbers in cases where the numbers it presents are known to be closer (i.e. Fast X).

Updated as of September 12th, 2023! Keynotes: - Air has been knocked off the Top 100 OW's list; - the opening weekend of The Automat has been knocked off the Top 100 PTA's list; - Old has been knocked off the Top 100 DOM list. No WW update yet, but sometime in the coming future, a large update for WW numbers is coming.

Pretty sure Aquaman 1 did not have better reviews than M3GAN lmfao

Updated as of September 6th, 2023! Keynotes: House of Gucci was knocked off the Top 100 OW's list; Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile was knocked off the Top 100 DOM list. Gotta take the moment to appreciate and thank @Issac Newton, such a valuable and incredible contributor
