Something tells me you're gonna declare some movie like that a couple times over the next year and I'm gonna have this post bookmarked to let you know miracles DO happen 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 3 minutes ago, Matrix4You said: Victoria and Abdul is looking to double its gross from last weekend and crack the top ten, making $2,184,408 with a per theater average of $2,984, likely the third best in the top ten. That would give it a total of 3,999,802. That'd be a fairly weak expansion, especially compared to The Zookeeper's Wife. Honestly, all the weak indie expansions over the past couple of months has made me appreciate The Big Sick's run a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Let the Right One In but I cant pretend that I like Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, it's far too dry for my taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Thank You for Your Service had a screening recently, and there are a few reviews up on Letterboxd. There's only 5, but they're all positive about the movie. If Universal can raise awareness over the next few weeks, it could open at #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The odds were beaten. We are in the "fucking miracle" stage with this movie though. That's like 0.1% chance.
