I should like to drop "The Hunt" (9/27) and pick up "The Last Full Measure" (10/25), s'il vous plait.

...Matter of fact, I don't think half the films in Round 2 will claw their way to $200M.

Meantime, Round 3 is looking pretty strong. Wouldn't surprise me if Three did nearly as much business as Two.

--Nico.

Agreed. And "Mulan" may end up with numbers roughly between those two titles, as well.

As for Round 2's biggest BUST: My money's on "MiB", tho "Joker" and "Terminator" must be considered strong contenders, as well.

[Sigh] "Midsommar"'s gonna be another disappointment.

--Nico.

Man, Zombpanzee's gonna bust half a billion by the end of Week 10 in the season. That's impressive.

--Nico.

Agreed. "Abominable" is looking like a top-tier non-Pixar animated release. Wouldn't be surprised to see this one do $130M. A fantastic pick.

Ugh. Through three releases ("The Biggest Little Farm", "Tolkien", "UglyDolls"), I'm running a good one-third lower than my initial projections (~$27M, versus a hoped-for $38M). My Summer releases had better overperform, starting with "The Dead Don't Die". But I ain't holding my breath.

It was too long between films.

Man, I just DO NOT understand what happened with "Godzilla: King of the Monsters". It's a TERRIFIC Summer popcorn movie, better than the 2014 reboot (which was very, very good), with a frequently inspired marketing campaign and a strong cast with a quite compelling narrative. WTFF. This should be a ...

Looks like a $1.15B slate to me, props.

Aquamann, "The Lighthouse" looks like a brilliant late-Round pick, very cool.

--Nico.

Really? It has disappeared from all theaters near me, except Alamo Drafthouse. That's excellent. It needs some freaking marketing.

--Nico.

Wow, JAS. You did it again... "A Quiet Place 2" is scheduled for release in March 2020.

Nicely done.

--Nico.

Yeah, that is definitely NOT how "The Biggest Little Farm" plays out. They're not overwhelmed hipsters, they're (at first) neophyte farmers with a steep learning curve... One they (mostly) successfully surmount, after reasonable struggles. I highly encourage you to see the film. And, everyone. It de...

It doesn't even look terrible. It looks BORING. The last several "Terminator" films have been many things -- and, I think, on the whole far better than their mediocre reputations, tho never on nearly a par with the franchise's initial two entries -- but, NEVER BORING. Not one shot, not one actor, no...
