If the "intense crash sequence" in Doctor Strange isn't intense, I'm asking for my money back. 

Lmfao this is seriously my favourite post in a while

I've seen plenty of tv spots for Storks but I honestly couldn't tell you what the plot is. Lack of clarity always spells doom at the box office.

Presales started today and look strong already.  It is going to hit a demographic (female and date crowd) that is absolutely starved for content.  

 

The Girl on the Train should do well, I wouldn't be surprised if Inferno cracks $100m although even if it doesn't, the OS numbers will likely make it a hit. 

 

Bridget Jones while doing poorly in the US,  is killing it in the U.K. and doing well in other countries. You wonder if Universal should have bothered with a wide release in the US given the previous two films weren't huge.

I think that Girl on a Train is going to hit it fairly easily.  

 

Woot woot!

The second one wasn't but the first one was pretty sizable, it made $5m less than Training Day domestically and adjusts to about $110m.  It's a shame this one isn't doing better than the second one (adjusts to $56m) which was awful but I guess too much time has passed.

Queen Eva will save the box office next weekend.

 

Then, Goddess Emily the following weekend.

Hopefully it is not just some book fans rushing to get tickets.

Bridget doesn't click with US audiences in the same way it does in the U.K., its the same with The BFG, bombed in the US but was a sizeable hit in the UK.

I always thought Denzel didn't deserve his paycheck but if studios agree to give him that kind of money, it s probably worth it to them.

Denzel really does have one of the scariest "I'm gonna kick your ass" stares in the business. I'm sure it comes in handy in salary negotiations.

Remember when people were saying Mag7 was gonna hit 200 million DOM?

[eddyxx]

I refuse to believe this Storks movie actually exists.  I have yet to see a single ad or trailer for it yet.

I'm convinced that Mag 7 disappointing is further proof that audiences hate Asians, I've connected this by the failure of Star Trek Beyond + some Asian dude in Mag 7.

Well, that is the extent of the Asian presence in Hollywood, unfortunately.

[That One Girl]

My curse strikes again with Mag 7 underperforming.

 

Damn...rip Miss Peregrine's next weekend
