Sausage Party is literally turning into the fucking family movie of the year in my household lmao.  It's rare that me, my mom, and my sis all go see a movie together voluntarily, but that's exactly what we're gonna do tomorrow for it.  We preordered our tickets and we're all literally talking about how excited we are  

One sausage to unite us all

When you realize this, that's when you don't post anything else. 

 

There isn't such a thing as success versus a bigger success? There are many movies with similar budgets that won't make it past 250 million, not even past 200 million, and some fail to even reach 150 or 100 million.

I think Sony made a solid move for Sausage Party it originally was supposed to be released in May of this year, and they moved it around a few times. Word of mouth has been solid for it thus far, and it should hold up fine on the dailies and weekends.

Hmm...so there are people that still think he's a bad actor after Boogie Nights, The Departed, and his Will Ferrell collaborations?

 

Marky Mark gets a lifetime pass from me for Boogie Nights but was there anything special about his performance in The Departed?

Any others? Or does the DCEU corner the market on this?

Marky Mark was only in it for a little bit, all I remember was the ending that shocked 13-year old me. Fear, The Big Hit, Three Kings, Pain & Gain, Ted 1 & Ted 2, and Four Brotbers are the Marky Mark films I remember. I also am one of the few who really liked 2 Guns.

Alice had good WOM with its target family audience, aka not teens/adults.

Of course. The more people go see it, the quicker your club will crumble.

I don't think WOM will be bad, but we have to see how much of the audience going this weekend is a niche one. Don't think we can say for sure yet it's having big GA appeal.
