April being April. Everything either flops or underperforms, except After, which is doing solid but far from breaking out. 

 

Little is doing OK but I expect sort of Barbershop 3 numbers. 

 

Hellboy flop as expected while ML is doing embarrassing number.

What I am the most curious about is the effect if any GOT will have on Sunday for these films.

GoT is the finale event of the year... It won't specifically have an effect on Sunday but will decrease the box office for two months, as people around the world will watch and rewatch every episode then the full season and series.

 

Already you can feel the effect this weekend, as many families are staying at home to binge the show before the premiere.

US had huge buzz at first as the film snobs heralded it as a stand against the non-stop sequels and comic book movies but in the end its not as good or interesting as Get out.

We get you don’t like those types of films.

You guys have some metal image that I watch Micheal Bay Films all day.

 

I actually really liked Get Out but I heard US was not as good as that.

Another sizable drop for US. Wom isn't so hot for this muddled and ridiculously plotted movie.

Yep and I bet that guy’s next movie won’t have such an opening.

So you've yet to see it?

This "bad WOM" talk for US seems overblown. Opening was inflated because of Peele's stamp acting like a brand of its own

LMD only watches Marvel movies in theaters.

So you say that Us was worse than GO without actually having seen Us?

And The Last Jedi

They went ahead with 2nd PR and 3rd Hellboy without GDT.

[TMP]

I'm surprised GDT didn't sign on to any big projects post-Shape of Water. You'd think Marvel/DC/LucasFilm would give him big offers

[JohnnyGossamer]

GDT should just do his own thing.

Hellboy vs Kaiju shared universe movie. #GDTU

I absolutely loved GET OUT, but US was not good. It lacked suspense, thrills IMO

Just let LMD be LMD. He'll be back to complaining about how SJWs ruin everything soon enough anyway.

After is low-key the winner of the weekend. The power of Harry Styles fanfiction, I guess.

 

Horrendous numbers for Missing Link but I'm not surprised, advertising was nowhere.
