I have anything from Relativity on a 10-foot-pole rule. The odds of one of their films a) getting released, b) being a good movie and c) being promoted well are just about non-existent. I'd dump it before it's too late.

It's going to be a day-and-date title (despite Box Office Mojo listing it as wide) so it's going to be a dump title more or less. As for a trailer and poster, I think we'll be getting those next week (the film was just rated by the MPAA).

I'm going to drop I'm not ashamed and pick up Unforgettable. I can almost hear the reviews on this now, but maybe it's not awful.

Sigh. I'll drop Friday the 13th and pick up Kidnap. Maybe it can make $10 and outgross The Disappointments Room.

Getting a little worried about my TBA's. I'll drop Terminal for Miss Sloane. At least it has a wide release date. The Babysitter had a preview screening, so I'll hope that one still makes it out. although if that's the movie that puts me into the A league I'll be stunned.

I wouldn't be surprised if The Babysitter ended up being straight-to-DVD. Sony pulled Keep Watching (another Bella Thorne horror film) from the 2016 schedule as it would have been sandwiched between Boo! A Madea Halloween (yet another Bella Thorne film with horror elements) and Amityville: The Awakening (Bella Thorne and horror again) and is there really room for four horror-themed films the same actress in one year? Also, Warner Bros. has put horror titles intended for theatres out straight-to-DVD in the past (see Hidden, the film the creators of Stranger Things before that series).

At least Thorne's next film is in a different genre.

Added to the list of available films, as Division A already had it listed.
