 It [Daddy's Home 2] has a slight advantage in getting ahead of Justice League, which will earn $100M-$120M next weekend, if not more.

That is definite low balling. expecting 150-155m at lowest

[That One Girl]

I like 22JS better than the original

[JB33]

Believe me, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but isn't it a little strange that Deadline is predicting a weirdly high 2nd weekend for Thor and a weirdly low OW for JL? Like, 100-120 for JL? That's ridiculous.

22 jump street is a lot of the same jokes. not all there's some good fresh stuff but it's still too much. which is why most comedy sequels don't work really.

 

ALSO that's why bill and ted 2 rules. today that movie would just be they hop back in their time machine and do the same deal with different historical figures or whatever.

I'm not gonna pretend Daddy's Home 2 is high art, but if you ever wanted to see Mel Gibson play a sexist pig/deadbeat dad, this is the movie to see.

Possibly. As is, John Lithgow gets fuck all to do.

What if I never wanted to see Mel Gibson again, would you recommend it to me?

I would recommend Hacksaw Ridge as Mel Gibson does not appear in a single frame of that film

[DAR]

It sounds like Gibson just wandered on while the cameras were rolling

Yes. Because one of the subplots is about a white boy trying to get together with an Asian girl, it's your life story at heart. And what if Mel Gibson's character is really just his What Women Want character 20 years later?

I wish it wasn't in the trailer so you could get threadbanned over Daddy's Home 2

New BOP predictions and TCs: http://pro.boxoffice.com/long-range-forecast-insidious-last-key-mollys-game/

 

Insidious: 19.5/34.5

Molly's Game: 6/21

The Star: 12/44 (-8/27%)

 

Coco: 4,000

 

I guess Roman Israel is getting dumped worse than Billy Lynn because BOP removed it  

I'm not surprised. Definitely feels like it's being dumped. Good chance it'll be Denzel's lowest-grossing film since at least 1995's Devil in a Blue Dress.

I have to watch Bill and Ted again. Haven’t watched it in ages. 

 

Outstanding.
