Good for Mule

Wonder if WB can work their magic for They Shall not Grow Old too? Not saying $100m, but like $30m+ would be great for that

Why not go for the "Oscar audience" and make a play for $100M for that one, too:).  If Mule can do it, we can push TSNGO that high and tie the mark for most $100M movies (for 2018:)...

The power of drama unleashed in 2018

Yikes at Serenity. It came in even lower than expected. Is it even gonna make $15M total?

The biggest thing going against TSNGO's favour is that in the UK it debuted on TV already, so piracy might hinder it a bit. However, from everything I've heard, it's meant to be a film experienced at the cinema - so that certainly could incentivize people, especially as it's going to skew older for the most part. The Mule might not have had any marketing material until 2 months before release, but it was also mostly a fun popcorn film, while TSNGO might be a bit heavier for some audience members

Probably more like $10-$12M Im guessing especially based on that IM for the weekend. Guess Anne Hathaway's pleas on instagram to give it a shot didn't work

Wow this movie has had great legs so far for a horror movie. It’s a pretty successful. Sequel is probably locked.

Escape Room won't reach the heights of recent horror hits, but it is another great run in the genre.

[Eric Loves Rey]

Wow, I guess that 19M number for Glass was accurate. A 52% drop isn't that bad all things considered.

Will the Eastrail 177 trilogy be the highest grossing non-Marvel/DC live action superhero series?

 

Until Vinny D's Bloodshot of course

I’m so glad! Hasn’t even opened in the UK yet, I caught a preview, really enjoyed it. 

 

Plus, budget is $9m. 

 

Mary Poppins is just underwhelming every single week.

I imagine domestically we'll still get the odd sleeper hit like an It or American Sniper.

The sleeper hit you talk about is Pikachu
