He was adrift in the North Atlantic after his giant air balloon made up of twenty balloons crashed. He arrives in New York City and we learn the world has been waiting to hear from him. Sherman, a recently retired schoolteacher, was last seen three weeks ago leaving San Francisco on a giant balloon, determined to spend a year drifting alone. The world waits breathlessly to find out how Sherman could have circumnavigated the globe in record time and landed in the ocean with twenty balloons rather than the single one with which he began his journey. After several days' rest and a hero's welcome, the professor recounts his journey before a captivated audience. Sherman's flight over the Pacific Ocean was uneventful until an unfortunate accident involving a seagull forced him to crash land on the volcanic island of Krakatoa. He discovers that the island is populated by twenty families sharing the wealth of a secret diamond mine, the richest in the world which they operate as a cartel. Each year, the families sail to the outside world with a small amount of diamonds, to purchase supplies for the hidden and sophisticated civilization they have built on the island. Each family has been assigned one of the first twenty letters of the alphabet, and lives in its own whimsical and elaborate house that also serves as a restaurant. The Krakatoan society follows a calendar with twenty-day months. On "A" Day of each month, everyone eats in Mr. and Mrs. A's American restaurant; on "B" Day, in Mr. and Mrs. B's British chop house; on "C" Day, in Mr. and Mrs. C's Chinese restaurant; on "D" Day, in Mr. and Mrs. D's Dutch restaurant, and so forth. Sherman's first friend on the island, Mr. F, runs a French restaurant containing a replica of the Hall of Mirrors. The houses are full of incredible items, such as Mr. M's Mexican house, which has a living room with mobile furniture that operate like bumper cars. The children of the island invented their own form of amusement that combines elements from merry-go-round and balloon travel. Sherman’s time on the island is filled with great fun and adventure. These very different cultures live in peace and harmony together and because of this, science is extremely advanced. Suddenly one day a major earthquake shakes the island. The volcano on Krakatoa erupts as a result. The families and Sherman escape on a platform held aloft by twenty balloons. The escape is harrowing and they barely make it out. As the platform drifts westward around the world, the families parachute off to India, China, and Europe to start their new lives. Sherman remains on the platform and finally descends onto the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, where he is rescued. The film concludes with the audience giving Sherman a standing ovation and he becomes an American legend.

I actually think this will fair better with that date. Way less competition.

Brandybook? @Alpha

Jigsaw is respectable. 50 tickets behind HDD but I do live in a college area so naturally HDD is gonna do better. TYFYS is tied with Only the Brave = another middle American film failure. Suburbicon isn't doing well but I am not so surprised. Jigsaw 149 1,138 13.1% Thank You For Your Service 29 376 7.7% Suburbicon 34 636 5.3%

Decent for Jigsaw and should have good walk ups. HDD was at 70ish tickets though at the same point and ended with 200 tickets sold. Terrible for TYFYS....I mean damn... Very good for Thor 3, it has sold 17 tickets over the past 24 hours and should continue to pick up steam. The next three just appeared a few hours ago so it is too early to form any solid conclusions yet. Stars Wars: Last Jedi is going fantastic! Jigsaw 38 1,138 3.3% Thank You For Your Service 0 376 0.0% Suburbicon 7 636 1.1% Thor: Ragnarok 290 1,004 28.9% Daddy's Home 2 0 234 0.0% Murder on the Orient Express 3 234 1.3% Justice League 91 870 10.5% Stars Wars: Last Jedi 1,528 2,350 65.0%

I don't see a reason why it wouldn't. Beautiful visuals and it is sci-fi = perfect recipe Chinese success
