I just remembered Beyonce was supposed to be in ASIB. It would have been so awful. Being talentless (don't believe what the media says- she has no talent outside of a decent-at-best singing voice) she wouldn't have been able to contribute anything other than bootyliciousness, fiercely strutting around on stage and doing hair flips. In other words, she would have been her unbearable  "Queen Bey" self  for 2+ hours. Gross. 

Hope that made you feel better.

 

The Queen remains unbothered.

We will never know how Beyonce would turn out but big chance that she wouldn't be Queen Bey cause the character is nothing like that. She would play a character without her usual sass if she was written without it. her other roles were tailored for her stage persona, so she couldn't show if she had range.

Good thing that the Grinch is doing well domestically because its OS openings so far range from "fine" to "hilariously bad"

Beyonce is immensely talented. She is one of the best performers of all time, a modern day Michael Jackson - and to say that her singing voice is decent at best is beyond delusional. She's better than Lady Joanne in every way. It's funny how she became everything Fad was supposed to be - and completely ERASED her.

Dr. Seuss has always been much more of a US thing than an overseas one. The Lorax made nearly 2/3 of its worldwide gross from just the states several years ago.

Imagine coming for Beyonce's vocals while defending Gaga's SCREECHING.

Let's not belittle either of them.

Beyonce is a great stage performer and a good singer. She has been wildly successful. She has nothing left to prove. Everyone knows that she isn't a real actress, most musical artists suck or are painfully mediocre in films. It's fine. She'll continue to make music.

‘Venom’ Throttles $700M WW, Propels Sony To $2B+ Overseas Box Office In Best Time Since 2012

Sony

by Nancy Tartaglione

 

November 13, 2018 2:57pm

 

EXCLUSIVE: On the back of a record-setting opening weekend in China, Sony’s Venom is bonding with a handful of new milestones. With today’s grosses, the Tom Hardy-starrer crosses $700M worldwide, and will hit $500M overseas tomorrow. What’s more, the film is propelling Sony past $2B at the international box officefor 2018. That benchmark, one that has not been achieved so early in the year by the Culver City studio since October 31, 2012, was topped through Monday with a total $2.001B.

 

Based on the Marvel property, the Ruben Fleischer-helmed Venomhas been a superhero for Sony since it began its run last month, breaking domestic and global October opening records in its early play. Through Monday, it was at $688.5M worldwide — and with today’s China’s haul ($11.6M), it morphs across $700M to $700.1M. The offshore total through Monday was $481.5M. Figuring Tuesday’s Middle Kingdom add, that lifts to $493.1M, meaning Wednesday will push it over half a billion overseas. It is looking likely to get to $800M worldwide.

It's doing well in the UK but Dr Seuss and The Grinch is more well known there. I imagine it'll still do $450-500m WW which is low for an Illumination film but still respectable.

Bohemian Rhapsody is 33rd on the Billboard charts this week. Mercury is the real legend here.

Venom over 800 is not even gonna be close. It's gonna crush that milestone. 825 minimum: 215 dom + 225 ch + 385 os-ch
