If UDM misses his 2nd window, I'll give him an extra few hours and make my next selection around 5 PM EST

A24 has had a very busy week on the acquisition front. They also nabbed the rights to Parthenope ahead of its Cannes debut and John Patton Ford's sophomore feature Huntington-which is set to star Glen Powell, Margaret Qualley and Ed Harris.

Might as well take one of the bigger TBA titles with distribution off the board here. Taika Waititi's stock is tumbling at the moment and I have no idea how popular the source material is in the US, but Jenna Ortega and Amy Adams are the leads and its currently expected to be ready for a late 2024 r...

Preview totals:
The Fall Guy $3.15 mil (includes Wednesday night's Dolby/IMAX sneaks)
Tarot $715k

Bridget Jones 4 is releasing on Peacock in the US

Walleye, if you want Tarot, have at it. We can make it official in about 25 minutes if Banks doesn't pick it first.

I'll go with Levon's Trade and hope that Statham and Ayer can make some more January action movie magic

I'm standing strong in my belief in The Fall Guy. Universal has promoted the hell out of it, the stock of its leads has never been higher and the WOM should be great. If it clears $30 mil this weekend, it should get to $100+ no problem

A slasher movie from the POV of the killer is a cool idea but the extreme gore paired with the slow cinema style is going to keep me away

Boy Kills World:
Kinds of Kindness
Bad Boys: Ride or Die (redband)
The Dead Don't Hurt
In a Violent Nature (redband)
The Fall Guy
A Quiet Place: Day One
The Crow
Kill (redband)

I'll go with With Love . Its current Super Bowl Weekend release date isn't great but Ke Huy Quan should make for a great action star, Jonathan Eusebio has the potential to become the next veteran stunt coordinator to make a smooth transition to directing and both of the prior low-ish budgeted 87Nort...

Ballsy indeed in round 7. But it's true if it lands a distrib that releases it in theaters, I know a lot of guys who would pay to watch Sweeney and De Armas on the big screen together on the Galapagos islands.

Vanessa Kirby is in it too. It would be a hit off of horniness alone!

Damn, that is a ballsy pick. It could end up paying off if it lands at a theatrical distributor, but that's a huge risk to take at this juncture.

Done
