Hungry Hungry Hippos, Play Doh are not bad candidate.

Given SPA's track record, I imagine the reviews will be mediocre at best.

Not until Friday.

The social embargo lifts on the 27th at 9 PM, so at least there should be some reactions by then.

Must be a stinker if the reviews are coming 4 hours later.

Previews are super limited; a lot of theaters aren't doing them

Edited my post. Only about 50% of theaters in the Orlando area are doing them. My local AMC doesn't have previews either.

In Vegas it's half the theaters as normal as well. That's not good. Sony must be praying for the film to sneak in some families before the dam really bursts. It seems like they're prepping for a flop.

Second animated film this year from them to be a flop as well!

I really want this to flop for the good of the industry. I cannot control what you choose to do, but I, personally, will not be seeing this out of spite or curiousity.

And in some of those theaters, the owners made a brilliant choice to give a PLF over Dunkirk and in some case Atomic Blonde.
