Fun fact:  Rogue One had a 59% drop with Christmas landing its Sunday.

 

Now maybe I'm going senile, but I sure don't recall people saying it was the end of the world during that weekend.

Except if you removed Xmas eve and replace it with Xmas numbers TLJ would still have a 61% drop

Jumanji already down to the first two or three rows almost everywhere tomorrow, could be heading well past 200 if it keeps holding up like this. Rock needs a couple last hits before his presidential run.

My early 2018 new year's resolution - don't predict The Rock movies until the week of release - my 2 biggest "before the year" blown calls (not named The Star) both involved him.  I totally reversed which one would fly and which one would sink:)...

 

So, in 2018 predictions, my prediction is I won't predict The Rock:)...at least til 48 hours before OD:)...

OFFS.

 

Another article to refuse to give a click.

 

I'll give CJohn a reaction boost, however.

Well, to be fair, if its production budget is $300M and it only makes $300M DOM (a match of that budget), that would also be "not good"...

 

I mean, when Valerian came out, we held its production budget against its performance...

Jumanji’s debut is really good! It should finish between $150-$160 million domestic. 

 

Pitch Pefect 3’s debut isn’t horrible but should have some legs but may not make

$100 million.

 

Downsizing, Father Figures, and Showman... ouch. Paramount needs to think about their future in 2018 if they want to be alive at the end of the decade. Father Figures is a weak start for the stars but the studio behind it has had a strong year! Showman well it was too flashy. 

 

Jumanji should have reached $150m by Jan 1st...
