Can't wait to see Dory passing 415m and becoming Disney/Pixar's biggest animated movie DOM.

I can't wait for it to pass $484m and becoming their biggest movie ever adjusted.

Late on the 10 Cloverfield Lane discussion, but if anyone deserves Oscar talk for that movie, it's John Goodman, not MEW

 

That said, neither will be even considered

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates is going to steal Ghostbusters thunder 

 

Mike and Dave will be lucky to make GB OW for its total. 

 

I doubt it'll even make Central Intelligence's OW total.

 

Also, interesting that Disney reported actual numbers for all of its releases. Shows that they are well capable of doing so.

 

I wonder if this is because of the holiday, or if they start to report day by day.

I wouldn't jump to conclusions on Goodman yet, Supporting Actor is wide open right now and we won't know more for a few months.

How much would TARZAN need WW to break even?

[Blankments]

So is Swiss Army Man looking at another expansion or am I fucked and have to drive half an hour to see it?

You're probably out of luck, its PTA was only $818

[Blankments]

Shocked Tarzan is doing so well, legitimately felt NO interest in it

I drive half an hour to see movies all the time. 

[MrPink]

Lmao, it takes me a half hour to get to my usual theater all the time.

 

Houston. 

[WrathOfHan]

It's a 20-30 minute drive for me.

It's hard getting excited about this weekend... the fish is the fish and the rest are just there.... I really wanted BFG to break out and it's failing instead... and even my derby is meh (looks at list and sees possible top 10 well never mind that) And purge and Tarzan breaking out if you will messes with my summer game..... 

[Ozymandias]

Wow that Steven Spielberg joint is a nice bomb.

If you're going strictly by budget then about 360.

I'm legitimately not aware, to be fair if the showtimes come out on Tuesday for next week and it's still there, I'm not gonna rush there lol

You'll be good, Green Room and The Lobster didn't lose theaters (The Witch didn't either for that matter but it was much bigger). That said you might have to go late at night since it's probably going to get reduced to 1 showing per day at most theaters.
