Crazy Rich Asians | August 15 2018 | Jon M. Chu directing. Michelle Yeoh, Henry Golding, Gemma Chan, Constance Wu and Ken Jeong to star

Hopefully this is good. John Chu is directing In the Heights which I adore. 

[lilmac]

A welcome film for an underserved demographic (not that just Asians have to see this) 

[DAJK]

Is it just my theatre or whenever anyone gets this as a trailer, are the last 2 seconds EXTREMELY loud. Like to the point where it hurts 

[Avatree]

going to have to retitle this one in the UK to avoid people thinking this is about arab oil baron terrorists.

Pro Box Office thinks this can get 10$m - 15$m over it's release weekend, not counting Wednesday and Thursday.

So maybe $20-25m for the five days?

I hope it's a little more...Girls Trip was about a month prior and did 31m over three days last year.

I think this could become a late summer minor hit. $60-70M doesn't seem difficult to achieve.

I and @MrPink would love it if this became another leggy $100M+ mid-August smash ala The Help and The Butler.

I have no idea what to expect from this film.

 

I'll always have Joy Luck Club

Very nice. August this year is packed

[That One Girl]

Sounds like this movie will be crazy rich at the box office.

It's a fitting end for a movie that was shot over two years ago and has had its release date pushed back multiple times.

I, I BET MY LIFE

I think $20M+ sounds about right 

 

Theres actually quite a few smaller films (ie not blockbusters) coming out that have my interest in the next several weeks and that I’m hoping to watch during a study break.

 

The Spy Who Dumped Me and this film are on that list (A Simple Favor as well) so I’m hoping this does well at the box office. Sadly I won’t have the time to track its run but I’m rooting for it to make all the money!
