Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

[Disney Irish]

For about the 45th time, I am just like everyone else here in not being an expert on box office.

You might want to tell whomever you're in private group chats with then because they're convinced you're an expert in such topics as the "most experienced Hollywood/movie industry commentators on the board".

No kidding. And if the data in the graphs bother you, change the data. And Burbank is now working on that, finally.

Well, you might want to tell Sirwalter that you aren’t an expert on anything movie related because you have him fooled hook, line, and sinker.

I’m wisely waiting for MLK Jr. Weekend’s box office to come in before we put that movie to bed...



I figured if I tried to do an update now when it hasn’t hit a Billion yet, I’d be accused of jumping the gun.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

Gotcha.
