Futurist, shut your mouth! The Favorite was awesome. i don't think you were supposed to be impressed by the " old english dresses and castles". they were part of the decor. the story was original and very fun

Pretty sure Deadline is spot on today actually. 5 PM numbers suggest 10-11 for DP, 14-15 for Pets.

Paramount did have A Quiet Place just last year, so it's not like they're incapable of producing big hits off of original concepts.  But I imagine that 2016-2018 was mostly rough on them with Silence, mother!, Annihilation, Overlord, Downsizing, Suburbicon, Allied, Anomalisa, Everybody Wants Some, etc. all being original films that did poorly financially.  Their new strategy of "let's see what old properties we can reboot" makes sense when you take all that into consideration.

The late Brad Grey who was president from 2005 to early 2017 is responsible for most of those 2016-2018 release films.  Gianopulos has had a far different approach.

call me KrollioD1 because i've got the scoop on Paramount's future. don't tell anyone but they're selling to Sega. They're going all in on Sonic films.

Sure, there are so many black comedies built on lesbian (or bi) triangle power struggles centered around a Queen.

The Favourite is awesome. I think Sacred Deer is still my favourite Lanthimos though, I remember seeing that at a film festival and me and my friend just sat through the credits in complete silence in awe. That's never happened before for any movie for me.

I liked Sacred Deer too. The Lobster was too abstract for me
