First I've ever heard anyone complain about it, I swear I don't know where you guys get this  Luke Cage was incredible! A fantastic show all around. Everyone I know loved it. I've heard nothing but praise for Marvel on Netflix.

Of course you would say this.

I got about 4 episodes into Jessica Jones and called it a day.

I was talking to my GM earlier this week about how Hidden Figures would do so much better than underworld, even in our market. He didn't believe me too much (and actually has since challenged me from now on to do my own set of predictions each week and we'll see who's closer). He said he even talked to our booker who considered pushing for it in our market despite its semi limited Canadian release, but I mean come on who's gonna listen to some 17 year old kid who works at your theatre.

 

He texted me a few minutes ago, his buddy who runs some theatre in Ontario heard about our challenge and said "well the kid's certainly right about Hidden Figures, he might as well become your booker now." Really hope this means that 7.5M estimate is too low. Or maybe that Underworld is really REALLY bombing

Loved the first season of Daredevil. Mostly enjoyed JJ except for a couple of episodes. 

 

Watching DD season 2 right now. It's ok but not as good as the first season. Found a couple of the episodes to be a bit boring. I find it to be WAY to focused on the Punisher. 

 

Haven't watched LC yet. 

 

 

 

Great for HF

I really think it's too low but there's also a snow storm in many areas.

A few weeks ago I thought this was the 4th Underworld. I even have the first 3 on DVD.

Severe weather is going to crater this weekend. Should see major drops across the board.

JJ had too many sex scenes in the first half of the season

You'll wish it went back to being focused on the Punisher soon

[GiantCALBears]

West coast is supposed to see one of the worst two day rain totals in the past decade, snow across much of the East. Not great movie going weather.

Yeah I def think HF opening weekend will e hurt by the storm. Which sucks  I was hoping for a high opening weekend. 

[WrathOfHan]

Any bad holds caused by weather will be balanced out next weekend, especially with it being MLK weekend. Some movies could feasibly drop 20% or less.

Ok, just finished watching Alice Through the Looking Glass. Is it wrong that I enjoyed it quite a bit? I never liked the first movie and yes, this one has a few eye rolling scenes. But it was fun for the most part. Not a masterpiece by any means, but not bad.

#HiddenFigures red hot tonight heading to maybe $8M+ for wknd of about $23M & $9k avg. #Underworld going to near $6M for around $14M wknd.

[RyneOh1040]

Gotta assume that this is officially the last Underworld.  Fitting that it and RE are ending at the same time, feels like they were bound together some how.

[Jonwo]

Fox will be very pleased with that figure for Hidden Figures.
