The re-issue...the original reboot/remake...only cheaper.
Between now and October, E.T., JAWS, SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME and AVATAR will be re-released in theaters, raising the question--is it actually still 2020?
How many will you see on the big screen?

Great for any original flick to hit $100M--but that $68M budget will continue to haunt it, especially with what Peele did with much less in his previous two outings.

Can it hit $100M domestic? Odds are def against it. Most films that open with $30M usually are steeped in comedy, and most aren't R-rated. THE LOST CITY did it earlier this year, with the same players. Time will tell. Heck, even TRAINWRECK opened with $30M on its way to $110M.

“We need more comedy flicks in theaters!” Laughter. Guffaws. Lol.
Universal’s EASTER SUNDAY drops with just $5M this weekend—the lowest debut for a wide release from a major studio (that wasn’t day-and-date) this entire summer.
Welcome to August, folks.

While that’s certainly on the low-end for Sony’s $90M production—plus splashy, summer P/A spend—the R-rated actioner will have ALL OF AUGUST to strengthen its load, as this month is a ghost town in terms of big-time popcorn pics.

Never forget.

PREY spoiler alert.
Keep scrolling if you haven't seen it.
PREY is a great return to the roots of this franchise, no question, but in terms of overall mythology...does the Predator ever win? How does this species survive? They must have a better record against non-humans.

Brad Pitt's BULLET TRAIN left the station with $4.6M yesterday--solid start, but will it have long-haul playability as summer's last blockbuster?
Best compare is QT's ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD, also late summer, R-rated which scored $5.8M in previews, $41M debut.
