Davinci has me curious how he/she will respond to Black Panther.

 

Ugh - I don't even want to know - they will make it unbearable around here.

I feel sad that DaVinci was banned, his single-minded insanity was quite entertaining

?? Unless it just happened he isn't banned - his is the last one on the banned list for his last series of offenses.

Ghost fell apart so quickly

[WrathOfHan]

Weak expansions for Colossal and Their Finest.

I thought he was banned because baumer said bye bye

[narniadis]

That  F8 estimate seems reasonable when looking at the daily breakdown. Universal estimating F8 to be down -39% on Sunday so it has room to go up or down 200K~.

 

Born in China, Phoenix Forgotten and Free Fire are all LOL gonna fall hard from their estimates when looking at the Sunday projections.

Don't get me wrong, I do think it's coming - at the very least a couple week time out probably but no individual Mod can ban a member without approval from their group. So it hasn't happened yet. Right @baumer?

[Premium George]

How about changing Get Out words with donald trump?

While true their Sunday projection is overly optimistic at -17% *eye roll*

[baumer]

No, he hasn't done anything (currently) that is ban worthy.  And he is entertainment right now until the big summer films open.

That's actually a decent enough expansion for Colossal since its PTA didn't drop off too much. It's a very tough sell of a movie either way.

DaVinci doesn't because they discriminate against the black bears

But pandas are post racial, they are both, BLACK and WHITE.

Yeah, I was impressed I had originally figured about 15.5 or there abouts so getting over 17m is a pleasant surprise.
