Also, Café Society is blowing up at the locations showing it. It should at least avoid the poor fates of Allen's Emma Stone collaborations as it expands.

3.4 + 15 (18.4) + 16.25 + 12.35 = 47

That was honestly the only interesting thing about that stupid movie to me. Dude was rockin' that hair style.

I'm most interested in seeing how Dory holds this weekend and whether $500m is guaranteed.

I prefer Harrelson's twin hair.

To be fair, when does Kristen Stewart not look like a mess at public events? Remember that dress that was too big for her at the Oscars a few year ago? Yikes.

Queen Blake and her power. Jk jk. She's in the movie for like twenty minutes but I'm not shocked. The love triangle between Lex Luther, Bella Swan and Carol Ferris must be out of this world.

 

Okay on a serious note, it has an ensemble cast and got pretty good reviews. Nothing great or out of the ordinary but decent enough for those who like Woody Allen films to be interested to go out and see it.

So roughly around 45-50M for the 3 day, then pretty much fall off the planet and we move on to JASON BOURNE, right??

So we are going to ignore Star Trek coming out next weekend?

I'm curious how much screentime Parker Posey has considering she hasn't done anything noteworthy in a while.

I mean I thought this was a mess on another level. It literally looked like she was walking out of a Renaissance fair. Like if a designer tried to dress me in that I'd be like FUCK YOU. It was something else.

Honestly he's so close to passing Ansel on the man-crush meter

I imagine Amazon and Lionsgate aren't expecting it to make much money domestically, it's more so it can be eligible for awards.

I hear she has decent screen time. From the reviews it's clear Jesse is the lead, followed by Stewart. The rest of the cast is anywhere from 10-20 minutes. The movie is only 90 minutes so anything in that range id say is decent screen time. Although I feel like Steve Carrel doesn't have a big role because he has done absolutely nothing to promote it nor was he at any of the premieres.

It's a good Woody Allen (apparently), which is typically rewarded with solid box office receipts. Compare the grosses of Midnight in Paris and Blue Jasmine to everything else he's done this decade (You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, To Rome with Love, Magic in the Moonlight, Irrational Man).
