You forgot Emoji Movie. At this point I think Dark Tower will be pushed back again.

 

Ah yeah, forgot about that.

The only question now is: Will Beauty and the Beast top Finding Dory?

 

That could be hard. I mean, Finding Dory had better & higher reception and it was beloved by the critics & audience who saw that film.

 

Well considering I am a member of the under 400m club.....

Anyone who denies that Get Out was immediately dismissed by a certain portion of the US population, especially after it did so well, hasn't been paying attention. If you look at the comments section under a single status or article about it there are more than a few Trump voters calling it "racist" and another example of "whites being oppressed". Now, did they hurt the film at the box office? No. Ultra conservatives usually demonize any film even remotely resembling horror, and thus they wouldn't have gone to see it anyway.

Lol I meant more to the fact that it's forgettable not that Pixar hasn't had PGs before 

How can anyone find Finding Dory that forgettable? Shame on you. ? It's not a fact, it's an opinion.

 

It's the highest grossing animated film DOM-wise, and you call it forgettable? Maybe you haven't seen the movie very often, lol.

 

The one way you can memorize the film more....is more rewatches.

Biggest days for a PG movie was Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince I think, with $58,175,412.

 

Heh I forgot that Potter had PGs after GOF

What do you expect from same people who claimed that racism is a myth?

I think Sony themselves are looking at their own slate without The Dark Tower. That'd explain why there's not a single pie of marketing out there yet. Even Passengers didn't drop a trailer this late.

 

I don't think it's really that late, though. It's just mid-March. The movie opens in late July.

Nope nothing

This thread is going to pass the official BATB thread (years of posts) later on today/tonight. Nice job guys.

$63M OD for a blockbuster is still impressive.

 

It's higher than other Disney Live action remakes like Alice in Wonderland & The Jungle Book.

Alice was more impressive given how bad it was. Avatar was a major help as well.

Saturday is going to be the real story either with a jump or no jump/drop.

Ah, it was mixed at best. Critics just saw that film as "Eh" or "Meh". Not great, but not that terrible either. Just OK-ish. The sequel though, had a more poor reception.

$126m adjusted OW for a film that no one really likes that much. Too bad they didn't take their chips and leave the table & instead did a sequel.
