Speaking of which, Mark Rylance would be the fucking laziest coattail nomination since Alan Arkin back in 2012. This year's Supporting Actor field is highly competitive, so it's not like he'd get in because of weak competition.

 

Dont think he'll get in anyway.

 

Smiling extra has the edge over him

Oh sure they always seem to overestimate it a tad.

They certainly have been overestimating as of late haha. I'm curious to see other films Friday increases. I could calculate them myself, however, I'd rather have TheNumbers.com and BoxOfficeMojo do that for me lol. 

 

Edit: just saw on Box Office Mojo, Wonder Woman and The Big Sick concurred Friday. Especially, The Big Sick with a 279% increase--good for it!!

The box office and their runs for Nolan's films say otherwise.

What the hell is with The Big Sick being up 35% from last Friday? Did Lionsgate just give it a ton of double features with Hitman's Bodyguard or something?

Must have haha. Either way, that's pretty damn impressive.

Patti Cake$ is debuting like shit. That was expected after the merely fine reviews.

Yeah, that's strange. I'd say it opened in areas that it hadn't opened in before it already has been in over 2,500 theaters so I don't where it could've expanded too. Perhaps people really want to see good movies at this dead time of year.

Not surprised the Big Sick saw an increase. It was popping up quite often on Fandango pulse the last several days.

They should just expand it back to 1500 theaters or thereabouts. Its PTA holds have been monstrous for the past month.

Kinda reinforces the notion they expanded too wide, too fast. It's been doing great ever since it lost those locations it was never gonna make anything at to begin with.

i saw the trailer for that last time i was at the pictures. honestly it made me furious.

[filmlover]

Wind River is definitely gonna take advantage of the next few weeks being completely empty. $20M+ should be easy.

Yes because he didn't have a fanbase then? He established one by putting out good film after good film after good film. 

 

And no his fanbase isn't a bunch of "fanboys." He targets the older demo a lot which also helps explains why his films have leggy runs.

I got it a month ago at Big Sick. It looks 10 times cringier than your average Sundance comedy.
