Going after the Chinese money by putting Jackie Chan front and center.

Rated PG for action and some rude humor.

So apparently this was just announced to theaters, The Nut Job 2 will start previews at ..... 3pm on Thursday. That is a ridiculous time to classify as "previews" anymore. Its basically just a Thursday opening effectively.

lol

This is some nutty shit.

[That One Girl]

What was originally midnight screenings has now been pushed back 9 hours earlier and is opening at 3 PM.  brilliant marketing strategies at work.

So.. which is going to be the worst antimated movie of the summer (as well as most likely year) this or Emoji movie ? I just seen a tv spot for this with Maya Rudolph's character mentioning this is how you know you've hit rock bottom. Given she's in both pretty sure she's talking about her career.

I next expect 5 PM previews to begin on Wednesday evening with 31 hours worth of numbers rolled into the Friday opening.

Nut Job 2 may be actually worse, but it won't be remembered that way. This will be almost entirely forgotten 2 weeks after it's released, and then fall into obscurity. The Emoji Movie will be the butt of "bad Hollywood ideas" jokes for years to come.

You need help.

[TwoMisfits]

I have to think they are giving theaters the option to just show this at 3 and 5pm and then move on...last weekend, Emoji only got a 5 and 6pm showing at one local, who went back to the adult oriented movies for the rest of the night...

 

If I'm a theater and I was stuck with this movie b/c I had an idiot booker, that's what I'd do...

When you put it that way, it actually sounds reasonable.
