OE?

 

As for me I'll go back to Donnie Brasco as his best performance because he played a real character

Ferdinand is at 3.3% right now and is looking at a $14-15M OW, Coco is at 1.6% which would translate to $7M in that case.

 

Then again, this is probably flawed logic, since comparing Coco to TLJ would result in a $3.7M weekend.

Maybe Variety extrapolate their Coco numbers using MT's percentages hahah

You guys think the friends of these people had anything to do with the low rotten tomatoes audience score?

Wotw, after the first 30 minutes, you can stop watching. The initial battle scene is good after that. Complete nothingness.

The basement scene I still really like.

Ocean's Eleven

[Brainbug]

But what a fantastic year for mainstream cinema this was:

 

John Wick 2
Lego Batman
Get Out
Logan
Kong: Skull Island (fight me!)
GOTG Vol 2
Wonder Woman
Baby Driver
Spider-Man: Homecoming
War for the Planet of the Apes
Dunkirk
It
Blade Runner 2049
Thor: Ragnarok
Coco
Star Wars: The Last Jedi

 

are all worthy of beeing buyed on Blu-Ray imo, with Logan, Apes, Blade Runner, Thor and SW beeing the standouts.

 

And then you have the smaller films, Three Billboards, Lady Bird, Shape of Water, Disaster Artist...

 

Great, great year for movies. 2018 looks not half as promising.

But if he said Murder, we might get it confused with Hitchcock's Murder!

People saying Crystal Skull is maybe saying a bit much be largely loved by critics, but is maybe the best possible pick.

 

That list can give some clues:

Big IP movies with %

Burton Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

2003 Ang Lee Hulk

Spielberg again with WAR OF THE WORLDS

Like someone mentioned above 2005 King Kong

 

Live Free or DIE hard

Blade Runner 2049

The old set in present time homage to the Searcher with the similar ending is still worth a watch imo, but I agree with you that it is a movie that goes down, not up.

Look I get you want to watch the movie but come on acting like this is ridiculous. My screen went out 30 min in opening night of Ragnarok and everyone took their refund and came back later. Sure there were some groans but nothing like this. 

[JB33]

At the theatre now! Been waiting 2 years for this!

 

I'm really hoping this pulls ahead of $100M opening day. I mean,  just don't see how it could have a smaller true Friday than AoU. 

 

Now, to the concessions!

How is Charlie badly received when it had great legs, sold well on DVD and is a consistent seller, and ja on Tv all the time? Haven't watched it but it seems it is liked

Interesting story:

 

 

THE LAST JEDI is made of massive moments, jaw-dropping decisions, and megatons of involuntary audience participation. There is no fighting it: Every crowd that sees it is going to devolve. Loudly https://t.co/pZwanHrNwd

Not much energy at my capacity 8:45 LA Live LAST JEDI. The response was -- don't make me say it -- Luke-warm

My very quiet/subdued capacity crowd last night would bear this out, but wow. That's a WILD divergence pic.twitter.com/mbOdC3UFZB

this is gonna open below avengers and jurassic world, wow

I was hoping for 240m+, but 200m-210m is still fucking massive for December.  200m in winter is WAY bigger than 200m in summer.  The only other December release non-SW OW that kinda comes close is ROTK's which adjusts to 183m, and that was a 5-day OW.
