$800K previews, 2,375 theatres. Not sure what to use as a comp. Selma had $400K previews and an $11.3M wide OW (28.3x multi). It won't have that strong a multi though. I honestly don't know.... maybe this will surprise.

Is it breaking out anywhere else internationally besides SK?

I would not pay to see either one, but for me UW looked like a mashup of every underwater adventure film made for the past 30 years. At least Like A Boss looks like it might have a laugh or two in there.
Yep, different strokes I guess. I'm not joking when I say I'd see it for Salma Hayek. That's it.

As a tennis - and Williams - fan, I'm really, really looking forward to this. Their story is amazing.

I just noticed that Like a Boss doesn't even have a Audience Score on RT, lol. Not even PostTrak info about this movie.
The Metacritic is 33. Even the new Grudge has a higher Metacritic ( 40 ) than this movie.
I honestly can't believe a movie like this is out-opening a movie like Underwater. I mean, neither are that great, but clearly Like a Boss is terrible. At least UW has a concept. I don't know, just me.

We haven't seen any images of Let's Morbius yet so the trailer will have THE first reveal. Have to admit I'm curious....

I wonder if Disney will treat other finished Fox movies similarly or make more effort for some of them. I expect them to make some effort for Call of The Wild because it is something that will also play at Disney+ later on. Woman in the Window may be DOA unfortunately because it ain't ever gonna play on Disney+. The King's Man is a question mark after they inexplicably delayed it by 7 months and gave it the Ad Astra release date.
In fairness, it's also the last Kingsman release date as well, so there's a precedent there. Still wish it was staying on Presidents' Day weekend though.

Yeah, I've read several different opinions about the "gimmick". Really anxious to see it for myself so I can see what everyone is talking about and decide what I think of it. In a nutshell it clearly really works for some and doesnt work for others.

This will be opening in a very healthy 3,700 theatres next weekend. If it wasn't already obvious this would out-open Dolittle, the theatre count definitely puts a stamp on it. It'll be within a few hundred theatres at most of the latter's count.
Sony is preparing for a strong opening, methinks.
Oh, and another little bit of marketing:

between this and paddington 2 and a very english scandal, i am here for the hughnaissance
i always felt he wasted too many peak years doing bad romantic comedies when he has always been a far more interesting actor than his looks would imply
It seems like this same thing happened with Matthew McConaughey. Spend the first phase of your career being a pretty boy and doing sappy romantic comedies. Then, some time later, he emerges as a talented actor you can take seriously and whose performances are very entertaining. I look forward to seeing what Hugh Grant has got going on in the near future.

No, I didn't even know this movie existed! XD
Terrible month
Haha! Oh dear...
Well with Run I don't blame you. It's still on the schedule for whatever reason but there's been no news or marketing or anything for it and it's still apparently in post.

Release is not huge but its possible to hit 40m if it fills up its prime time shows.
OD PS - 45576/412075 676996.13 (2188 shows)
it needs to triple its PS by end of day tomorrow to hit double digits pure friday. it needs 11-12m true friday to keep 40m in play as sunday drop will be big. So let us wait and watch how things go.
Out of reactions, but thank you for the response. Indeed, we'll see. Really rooting for over $40M though. It would make for one of the top January openings (I count wide expansions as "openings").

Quick update on 1917 prev.
its at 46965/132146 679959.96(779 shows). it increased slightly less than what I expected. I would say range is ~ 3.3m depending on how much MTC1 overindexes.
Comps
Knives Out Final - 43016/108056 538765.71 (773 shows)
Ford vs Ferrari Final -
31459/161048 474271.77 (874 shows)Knives out had early screenings and somehow over indexed big time at MTC1. Hope that does not happen for 1917.
@keysersoze123 Are you still seeing a show count problem with regards to 1917 getting to $40M or is that becoming more plausible now?

I actually liked Doctor Strange so I'm not overjoyed like most are in this thread. That being said, I'm not unhappy either. I guess I just have so much faith in Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios that I'm comfortable with whatever they do and know it's for the best.
What is a shame is I was looking forward to the alleged horror element of this movie. Hope we don't lose that.

Everything is going right for this film.

Is RDJ even doing any promo for this? Already a bad enough sign a crazy expensive big-budget movie that's also his first post-MCU appearance is opening in a week and nobody is talking about it at all.
He's done a couple kiddish featurettes. That's about it. There's absolutely nothing happening with this film, it feels like. It's a big budget tentpole that's going to come and go the same as a small budget January throw-away movie would.
Very odd dynamics with this film, that's 'for sure.

At 52% right now, a higher RT score than I was expecting.
Yep, was just coming here to say that. Although we're only at 27 reviews so that could change big time.

She sure does. And it's funny that two posters gave me the "not cool" response. Why? In the trailer her character refers to her "humongous breasts". Good grief.
Tis par for the course on the internet man. I wouldn't sweat it. I'm learning to just laugh it off because situations like yours actually are funny when you think about it.

If not for this thread I wouldn't even know of this movie's existence. Another dud for a month that looks to be full of them.
Another delayed film, too. This was supposed to come out October 25. Feels like there are more delayed films than originally scheduled ones.

Someone I know at my theatre said walkups have been incredible for this today and will likely be even moreso tomorrow. I'm seeing it tomorrow afternoon.
