WB really struggling these days. 

 

These days as in like.....the past 3-4 weeks? 

 

2018 was really strong for them overall. They might be losing HP and Lego as reliable franchises, but all of that is insignificant compared to what they look to gain by rebuilding the DC brand

The Mule and Aquaman were ages ago. AGES AGO. CENTURIES AGO. I WAS JUST A BABY WHEN THOSE HAPPENED.

WB did have a pretty bad year - 2001: A Space Odyssey recreation re-release only grossed $3 million.

The FB franchise will likely be reworked so it's salvageable but I think Lego will go on a hiatus, Billion Brick Race I wouldn't be surprised if that is quietly dropped and replaced with say Wacky Races.

Insidious 4 and Escape Room are proof that 1) Adam Robitel is worth investing on, and 2) don't EVER underestimate horror from early January. It seems like the 1st horror movie of the year always overperforms. Even The fucking Bye Bye Man made 13.5M OW.

 

A well positioned Escape Room 2, given the breakout legs of the 1st one, could increase to maybe 70-80M DOM.
