DAMN PEOPLE ARE LINING UP AROUND THE BLOCK TO SEE THE MULE. 10/500 RUN INCOMING

10M is low with its presales at this point...I think $15M+ is certain...and I'd even say $20M+ could happen:)...

I’m glad this is getting well-reviewed just to solidify that Cooper had a banner 2018.

I think The Mule might be Clint's swansong so it's good that if it's his last then he's going out on a high although saying that I wouldn't be shocked if he directs one more movie.

This is already down to 64 on Rotten Tomatoes. Looks like it will end up rotten.

Disney paying off critics again. smh

This film is the 2010s equivalent of Star Wars. Decades from now, people will be talking about Pecan Pies the way people talk about the Force.

Down to 64% with 41 reviews. Definitely wasn’t an awards player already and the news of Sondra Locke's death (RIP) has the media freshly reporting on Clint/WB's abhorrent treatment of her. WB will just quietly collect whatever money this makes and want to move on as quickly as possible.

Soon cameras will be filming the day to day lives of celebrities.

The New Puritans will demand it.

The death of Sondra Locke is now going to dominate this movie's release. There will be some nasty stuff out there in the next few days that isn't going to reflect well on pretty much anyone.

 

Ironically (and perhaps disturbingly) could even help it, while guaranteeing it's not going to go down any kind of awards route. Might even delay some international release dates.

The reports are that Locke passed away early in November, but that her family/people didn't let out the news until now.  Could this have been a deliberate move by her/her people, knowing The Mule was getting released?  One more swipe back at Eastwood for his ill treatment of her years ago?    Hmm...  🧐

I can’t wait to see this. I’ve liked almost all of his films.

It's not uncommon for it to take a few weeks or months for the news to get out, when someone on that level of fame has died (already out of the limelight for years and never A-list famous to begin with), but the timing is very...interesting to say the least.  Maybe she/her family planned it that way, maybe it's just happenstance, or karma.

 

 

No previews, it seems.
