It's a historic weekend at the box office as PLAYMOBIL opens to a disgusting $668k at the weekend box office, and The B.O. Boys are figuring out what went wrong! Was it the variable pricing? The collective consciousness of the child market saying no to this outdated IP? The lack of star power? Find out!
Then we look ahead to next weekend's big releases! JUMANJI is back but is the new premise too confusing, or just confusing enough? Clint Eastwood has the anti-media RICHARD JEWELL opening wide, but will a Clint-less movie about a man moving a bag be a hit at the box office? And BLACK CHRISTMAS is a movie again. Do we care?
JOKER is a billion dollar baby, and this week we're carving up the money! Who deserves the credit? Todd Phillips? Joaquin Phoenix? DeNiro? The Joker IP itself?
Lastly, the new GHOSTBUSTERS trailer dropped today (Paul Rudd!) and we're judging the film's box office prospects.
