Odd, given how well Pearl was received. Perhaps it has a fest ready to go, such as SXSW

I think it was a hit on streaming, because financially the $400m global the first made isn't exactly amazing, but then again it came out when a lot of people were still worried about COVID. Deadline are predicting a global OW of $170m or so, which would be pretty impressive

Its Thurs number is $12m at the moment, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it hit anywhere between 80 and 90m at this rate

Agreed with Chien. I guess I missed that conversation too, but if it's coming out on separate release dates and sites like BOM and The Numbers are separating them, then we should too. Presumably, for the next draft we won't be lumping the Horizon films together, for example, as we wouldn't have for ...

I didn't realise that's all you've left. The Battle for the Bottom begins!

I think I need a Cabrini-prompted miracle to not finish last.

My theory about older people is that they're so used to watching TV at home and talking through it that they fail to realise they're in a cinema full of other people. This happened to me last year as a couple decided to comment on everything. The great thing about the UK is everyone is so posh and p...

I watched Heaven's Gate on New Years Eve for the first time, as I nabbed the Criterion Blu-ray for cheap. It's the full version. I was impressed by it. The scale is amazing, and the bitterness of the theme and the main character who isn't the nicest. I'd argue it's too long, particularly the opening...

Yep. Had a while ago, I think, but never bothered to commit. Now I've put almost every feature film I've seen on it. Strangely, my life doesn't feel any better.

I think a couple of my least favourite ended up in your favourites, Chien.

Then again, you have been sick so maybe that's the reason

It seems love was in the air last week, or at least one love as One Love surprised pundits and defied critics by opening to a massive $52m as people got ready and were left waiting in vain to get seats for sold-out shows. With a great cinemascore and RT user rating, expect Bob’s positive vibrations ...

Dropping Drive Away Dolls for Arthur the King

That, and it's appealing to an older audience who haven't had a film for them in a while (although the Boys in the Boat probably counts)

Put me down for the 22nd
