I always forget how annoying this style of salt packaging is until I purchase it without a second thought and have to deal with it for the next couple months

Christy scores one of the 10 worst opening weekends of all time for an initial release in 2,000+ theaters - and that includes some COVID-era releases www.boxofficemojo.com/chart/worst_...

The Predator franchise has always been a couple tiers below the Alien franchise financially - the original Predator is still the only solo installment that adjusts above $100M, a mark most Alien movies adjust way above. So Badlands opening within $2M of Romulus's opening is mighty impressive.
Disney / 20th Century's Predator: Badlands debuted with an estimated $40.0M domestically this weekend (from 3,725 locations).

Remember when the movie previews at multiplexes actually started at the posted showtime? Those were the days.

It's always funny when you're in a dream and your brain makes up a movie you casually accepts as real before quickly realizing it doesn't exist. Like last night when I thought about how Jordan Peele ruined Nope with the sequel co-starring Tom Hanks as a live-action Woody.

Kind of amazed by how well "Trilogy of Error" holds up on rewatch compared to basically every other Simpsons season 12 episode - it's focused, has some fun surprises, and is pretty consistently funny. Also has one of my favorite dumb jokes of the series that stayed in my head over the last 24 years

Funnily enough this is easily the biggest single weekend gross ever for a Lanthimos film, albeit because Poor Things and The Favourite had a much slower rollout and never made over $3M in one weekend - it’ll probably be lucky to make half of what those did domestically.
Focus' Bugonia grossed an estimated $4.80M this weekend (from 2,043 locations). Estimated total domestic gross stands at $5.82M.

Unfortunately every time in Blue Moon someone sang the titular song the first version I started thinking of was the cover the mice sing in Babe.

“The Shinning” is a rare case of a 5/5 parody of a 5/5 masterpiece where seeing the parody first (as I did, and several times at that) does not blunt the impact of the original at all.

Look I really like the Mann Miami Vice but a crime movie starring Butler and MBJ with a solid director behind the camera? I’m very game.
Austin Butler is in talks to star as Sonny Crockett in Joseph Kosinski’s ‘MIAMI VICE’ remake.
Would co-star alongside Michael B. Jordan if his deal works out too.
