Wrinkle in time looked boring as fuck no matter what race  the leads were. If the only thing your movie has to offer is visuals then it better be a Jim Cameron joint.

I think the fact that Oprah is also a credible actrsss helps. She did an excellent job in the Color Purple and in The Butler. She wields a lot of power in the industry, often ranking amongst the most powerful people in the entertainment. I guess my point is that, if she wants to act in a movie, then very few studios will say no. Oprah is soemtimes hit or miss like most actors/actresses. Most of her stuff falls in the middle. 

 

 he Color Purple was a 100 years ago and Butler had an ensemble cast. I don't think people care about her in film.

Is it safe to say that Black Panther will top The Avengers domestically by the end of it's run?!🤔

[FantasticBeasts]

Of cource Oprah is not a draw. There are credible doubts of the draw power of JLaw and we are even making such a conversation?

The guys who did those infomercials, the guy with the funny face, he could sell the shit out of things too, but he wouldn't be a draw in a movie.

 

No but the parody of him is great at the end here

SoW will be GDT's second highest grosser WW soon. Will it be profitable though? What was the budget?

If Tomb Raider doesn't dethrone BP next week and I suspect that's about 50/50 then it might be PRU or Sherlock Gnomes that does it.

Not guaranteed. PR might not even make 20m opening

19m. It's been profitable for a while.

Idk about that judging from PRU TC and how bad it looks wouldn’t be surprised at a mega bomb and SG looks unappealing Panther might take the win that week too.

[MovieMan89]

Gnomes is locked to make more than Uprising. That thing is going sub 15m. 10m wouldn't even surprise me. Gnomes will probably be high teens. If BP manages something like a 30% drop next weekend and then a 35% drop the following weekend, then it might be able to stay on top for 6 weekends. Assuming Tomb Raider isn't doing more than high 20's.
