December 20th, 2017 We’ve been tracking ’s international numbers since it debuted, so there’s not a lot to talk about here. The film dominated the international chart with $230.0 million in 54 markets during its first weekend of release, while its opening was $450.0 million. However, it wasn’t the only film at the international box office. December 13th, 2017 earned first place for the second time with $55.3 million in 35 markets for totals of $254.0 million and $389.7 million. ![]() Even if we pretended Christmas wasn’t right around the corner and that the film didn’t still have several major markets left to open in, it would still be on track to earn over $500 million worldwide, which is more than enough to cover its entire production budget and likely a sizable chunk of its advertising budget. With Christmas less than two weeks away and international openings in Australia, Italy, Brazil, South Korea, the U.K., and Japan still ahead, there’s a chance this film will finish with $750 million worldwide. That would be more than enough to pay for its combined production budget, meaning it will break even before it reaches the home market. As for this past weekend, the film continued to top the chart in China with $34.80 million over the weekend for a three-week total of $127.98 million. December 6th, 2017 climbed into first place with $69.0 million in 33 markets for totals of $171.3 million and $281.4 million. The film opened in a trio of major markets in Europe, earning first place in all three. France led the way with $5.2 million, $6.4 million including previews, while Spain ($2.8 million) and Germany ($2.0 million) were also strong results. It beat ’s opening in all three markets. The film grew 146% during its second weekend in China earning $44.17 million over the weekend for a two-week total of $75.79 million. The film is already the biggest hit in China and is in third place for animated films, behind and. November 30th, 2017 There are no wide releases this weekend, which means should have no trouble remaining on top of the chart. In fact, most of the top five will remain the same as. Maybe one of the Awards Season contenders will expand enough to grab a spot in the top five, but that isn’t really likely. This weekend, remained in first place, as there were also no new releases to compete against. 2017 should be able to win in the year-over-year comparison, but it will be awfully close. November 29th, 2017 plummeted more than 60% to $71.5 million on 32,800 screens in 66 markets for two week totals of $310.98 million and $482.88 million. It’s only major opening came in Japan, where it earned first place with $3.85 million on 645 screens. This is ahead of and, so the movie is keeping its dreams of $800 million worldwide alive. It really needs that much to break even any time soon. Its biggest holdover was China, where it fell 68% to $16.36 million over the weekend for a two-week total of $84.17 million. It should be able to get to the century mark there, which will be reason to celebrate. It remained in first place in Brazil with $5.4 million on 1,617 screens for a two-week total of $24.8 million. November 28th, 2017 gave yet another reason to be thankful for Thanksgiving. It topped the chart, to give the studio 10 of the 11 biggest Thanksgiving openings of all time. Meanwhile, fell a little bit faster than expected, and $250 million domestically might be out of reach. It depends on how well it holds onto its theater count when opens. Overall, the box office fell 5.2% from to $189 million. This is 2.4% higher than the same weekend. Granted, that’s not enough to deal with inflation, but at this point, I’m willing to use any excuse to celebrate. Year-to-date, 2017 was able to close the gap with 2016, but is still behind 4.1% with $9.53 billion to $9.95 billion. November 22nd, 2017 is the only wide release of the week, which is amazing for Thanksgiving weekend. This should boost its chances at the box office and it is now expected to open in first place. Was expected to repeat as box office champion this weekend, but that’s likely not going to happen now. This weekend, earned $82 million over the five-day weekend. I don’t think Coco will match that, but it will come close enough to top the chart. November 22nd, 2017 easily won the weekend race on the international chart with a total opening of $184.95 million on 47,000 screens in 65 markets. Its biggest market was China, where it opened with $50.58 million over the weekend for a total opening of $51.89 million. Its best market was Brazil, where it earned $14.2 million on 1,580 screens, which is the biggest all-time opening in that market. In most major markets, the film opened above and. For example, the film earned $9.6 million in Mexico, compared to $8.22 million for Wonder Woman and $7.34 million for Thor: Ragnarok. It wasn’t as impressive in every market. For example, it only managed $9.67 million during its first place opening in the U.K., which is equivalent to a little more than $50 million here. The film opens in Japan this weekend, but it will need good legs to pay for its $300 million production budget. November 21st, 2017 easily won the race for first place on the box office chart. However, it only managed $93.84 million, which is substantially lower than it was to open with. In fact, it’s the first film in the to not open with more than $100 million. (To be fair, it is doing better internationally.) was a surprising hit in second place and it helped the box office rise 32% from to $199 million. More importantly, this weekend was 26% higher than the same weekend. 2017 ended its most recent slump, but it is still 4.5% or $430 million behind last year’s pace at $9.21 billion to $9.65 billion. November 18th, 2017 As, dominated the box office chart, earning four times its nearest competitor. However, it only managed $38.8 million on Friday, which is well below expectations. In fact, tracking has been dropping and the film is now widely expected to open with less than $100 million over the weekend, making it the only film in the to fail to reach the century mark during its opening weekend. There are a number of reasons why this film is struggling. Firstly, except for, no film in the franchise has earned good reviews and mainstream audiences may have given up on the franchise. Secondly, the troubled production meant a lot of people who were part of the target audience, but not hardcore fans, are taking a wait-and-see approach here. Since its are bad, these people are staying home. Its CinemaScore is just a B plus, so it won’t have great legs going forward. Finally, there’s. That film is proving to be stronger than expected competition, as it started faster and is holding up better than most similar films. I think is going to have to rethink the entire DCEU before going forward. Is already in post-production and is definitely going forward. After that, I’m not sure what films will or will not be made. November 16th, 2017 is hoping to be the biggest hit of the month, but two things could get in the way of that goal. Firstly, got off to a faster than expected start. Secondly, Justice League’s are significantly weaker. There are two other films coming out this week, and, both of whom are simply hoping not to be lost in a crowded marketplace. This crowded marketplace should help 2017 end its slump against 2016. This weekend, opened in first place with just under $75 million, while there were three other films that earned between $10 million and $20 million. This year, Justice League should top $100 million with ease, while Thor: Ragnarok will earn more than $25 million. The top two films this year should do better than the top five films from last year and that should lead to 2017 earning a comfortable win over 2016 in the year-over-year comparison. November 15th, 2017 For the third weekend in a row, dominated the international chart, earning $75.9 million in 56 markets for totals of $438.5 and $650.6 million. The film fell 59% during its second weekend in China, but this is actually much better than average for the market. It added $21.71 million this past weekend, pushing its running tally to $95.51 million after just two weeks of release in that market. The film held up even better in the U.K., where it dipped just 33% to $4.05 million in 569 theaters for a three-week total of $34.07 million. Its next biggest international market was South Korea, where it has earned $31.07 million, including $3.53 million on 856 screens this past weekend. The film already has more worldwide than either of the previous films earned in total. It has entered the top ten in the and it is on pace to enter the top five on that chart before its done. November 14th, 2017 led the and actually beat our by a small degree with $57.08 million. The two new releases, and, also beat expectations. Unfortunately, that wasn’t enough to help the overall box office, as it fell 16% from to $151 million over the weekend. This is 4.9% lower than the same weekend. 2017 has fallen further behind 2016 at $8.98 billion to $9.46 billion. 2017 is 5.1% or $480 million behind last year’s pace and I’ll be happy if we can cut that deficit in half by the end of the year. November 12th, 2017 maintains a firm hold on top spot at the domestic and international box office this weekend, with a respectable decline of 54% at home taking it to $56.6 million for the weekend and $211.6 million to date. With another $75.9 million internationally, for a total of $438.5 million overseas, Ragnarok will pass $650 million worldwide today. That makes it the, and it seems like it should retain decent traction into the holidays, even with coming out next weekend. November 11th, 2017 As, easily won on with $18.28 million. This is 61% lower than its opening, which is better than most blockbusters manage. It also puts it on pace for $56 million during its sophomore stint, which is exactly on track with my prediction. Meanwhile, ’s share of the film’s worldwide box office is already above the film’s $180 million production budget, so profitability is all but guaranteed. November 10th, 2017 pulled in $1.6 million during its previews lat night. In order to match our $27 million, it will need a multiplier of just under 17. By comparison,, which is another murder mystery movie with a train in it, earned a multiplier of almost exactly 20 with $1.23 million in previews and an opening weekend of $24.54 million. Murder on the Orient Express also earned, which would suggest longer legs. On the other hand, it had louder buzz, which tends to result in a more front-loaded box office. We will have a better idea tomorrow when Friday’s estimates are in. November 9th, 2017 After last week’s debut, should have no trouble repeating in first place, but we do have two new releases that should be in a battle for second. Had a strong opening in the and that bodes well for its opening this weekend. On the other hand, ’s box office potential is moving in the other direction. As I started writing this, there were still on Rotten Tomatoes. This weekend, led the way with $42.97 million. Should top that by around $10 million. Likewise, this week’s new releases should top last year’s new releases. However, last year had a lot better depth. Last year, every film in the top ten earned more than $3 million. This year, I’m not sure the fifth place film will earn more than $3 million. I fear 2017 will lose yet again in the year-over-year comparison. November 9th, 2017 As expected, remained in first place on the international chart dominating the competition with $151.4 million in 55 markets during its second weekend of release for a two-week total of $306.0 million and $428.7 million. After just two weeks of release, the film is within striking distance of the original at the worldwide box office and by this time next week, it might surpass. As for this past weekend’s highlights, the box office was led by China, where it earned first place with $53.42 million over the weekend for a total opening of $54.53 million. This is the biggest November opening in that market and the biggest total for a film. It had to settle for second place in Mexico, but was still impressive with $7.34 million over the weekend for a total opening of $10.52 million. It also did well in Germany with $5.5 million over the weekend for a total opening of $8.9 million, which is 70% higher than ’s opening there last year. The best holdover came from South Korea, where it was down 47% to $6.39 million on 1,047 screens over the weekend for a two-week total of $25.88 million. The only market left to open in is Trinidad, but even with no major markets, the film will have no trouble getting to $500 million internationally and $800 million worldwide. November 2nd, 2017 Next weekend, there are two wide releases, and, both have a shot at $100 million, but both are expected to come up short. Even if both films earned the same amount in the end, Daddy’s Home 2 should still open faster, because of its target demographic. Therefore, Daddy’s Home 2 is the better choice for the target film in this week’s box office prediction contest. In order to win, one must simply predict the opening three-day weekend box office number for. We are continuing our Christmas contest for as long as I have supplies to mail out prizes, at which time the contest ends for good. The last of our winners will either get a Christmas present or a lump of coal. The present will include a couple of movies, TV shows, maybe some kids DVDs, etc., while the lump of coal will be the last of my HD-DVD titles, while they last, as well as something from the prize pool. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film’s opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going over, will win a Frankenprize, as described above. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film’s opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going under, will also win a Frankenprize, as described above. Finally, we will be choosing an entrant from the group of people who haven’t won, or haven’t won recently, and they will win the final Frankenprize, as described above. Entries must be received by 10 a.m., Pacific Time on Friday to be eligible, so don’t delay! November 1st, 2017 wasn’t a good month; then again, outside of a few bright spots, the overall box office has been a disaster since early summer. I would love to say November will turn things around, but, while it should be better, in this case “better” is a relative term. There are two films on this list with a chance at $300 million, and, while is nearly a guarantee for $200 million. By comparison, last had a similar result with three films earning between $200 million and $300 million, but none topping that figure. This means, if Thor: Ragnarok and Justice League both get to that milestone, then 2017 could cut into 2016’s lead during the month. It will still take a minor miracle for 2017 to catch up in the end, but just cutting the lead in half by the end of December would be a reason to celebrate at this point. June 2nd, 2017.

Therefore, Daddy’s Home 2 is the better choice for the target film in this week’s box office prediction contest. In order to win, one must simply predict the opening three-day weekend box office number for. We are continuing our Christmas contest for as long as I have supplies to mail out prizes, at which time the contest ends for good. The last of our winners will either get a Christmas present or a lump of coal. The present will include a couple of movies, TV shows, maybe some kids DVDs, etc., while the lump of coal will be the last of my HD-DVD titles, while they last, as well as something from the prize pool. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film’s opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going over, will win a Frankenprize, as described above. Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film’s opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going under, will also win a Frankenprize, as described above. Finally, we will be choosing an entrant from the group of people who haven’t won, or haven’t won recently, and they will win the final Frankenprize, as described above. Entries must be received by 10 a.m., Pacific Time on Friday to be eligible, so don’t delay! November 1st, 2017 wasn’t a good month; then again, outside of a few bright spots, the overall box office has been a disaster since early summer. I would love to say November will turn things around, but, while it should be better, in this case “better” is a relative term. There are two films on this list with a chance at $300 million, and, while is nearly a guarantee for $200 million. By comparison, last had a similar result with three films earning between $200 million and $300 million, but none topping that figure. This means, if Thor: Ragnarok and Justice League both get to that milestone, then 2017 could cut into 2016’s lead during the month. It will still take a minor miracle for 2017 to catch up in the end, but just cutting the lead in half by the end of December would be a reason to celebrate at this point. June 2nd, 2017.

Ninjago is a city within the Universe that is frequently attacked by the evil Lord Garmadon, who is the father of Lloyd Garmadon and ex-husband of Misako (AKA Koko). Ninjago despises Lloyd for being Lord Garmadon's son, which puts Lloyd under emotional stress. They do not know that Lloyd is part of the secret ninja force, consisting of Nya, Zane, Jay, Cole, Kai and their master named Wu, who always stop Garmadon from taking over the city by fighting with mechs. On Lloyd's birthday, Garmadon attacks the city once again only to be defeated. He escapes and fires nine generals of his Shark Army for failing to help him. He then begins to plan a big attack to conquer Ninjago, and his GIT`s show him plans to build a gigantic mech that is immune to weapons. Meanwhile, Lloyd and his friends see the return of Master Wu, back from a long trip he took. Master Wu tells them they aren't real ninjas if they use only mechs to fight, and discusses with Lloyd that his element is green, confusing Lloyd. Master Wu tells Lloyd he must not be angry at Garmadon; he must use his mind to fight. Wu mentions an Ultimate Weapon, giving Lloyd the hope of defeating Garmadon once and for all, despite being forbidden to use the weapon. ![]() Feb 08, 2017 LEGO NINJAGO, Le Film Bande Annonce VF (Animation, 2017) Abonne-toi ici et MAINTENANT Le.

As Garmadon celebrates his victory, Lloyd reveals that he is the Green Ninja, and tells Garmadon that he wishes he wasn't his father, leaving Garmadon confused. Lloyd meets up with his friends and Master Wu, who are all upset with him for using the weapon. Wu tells them they must use an Ultimate, Ultimate Weapon to stop Meowthra from destroying the city, which they would reach by crossing the Forest of Dangers, the Canyon of Death, and the Temple of Fragile Foundations. Garmadon overhears Wu talking about the weapon and follows close behind. He meets up with Wu and fights him, only to end up in a cage, defeated. However, Wu loses his balance and falls off a bridge into a river, telling Lloyd he must use inner peace before getting swept away. The ninjas decide to continue on, with Garmadon leading them much to Lloyd's disappointment. They are caught by the Shark Army, who want revenge for being fired by Garmadon and shot out of his volcano lair. The ninjas try to fight, but are easily defeated.

He tells Lloyd that he wishes he had stayed with him and his mom after deciding to conquer Ninjago, but he couldn't change so he had to stay behind. The ninjas find the Ultimate Ultimate Weapon, consisting of a set of trinkets, only to have it stolen by Garmadon who still wants to take over the city. He offers for Lloyd to be his general, but Lloyd rejects his offer. Out of fury, Garmadon locks all of them in the temple as it begins to collapse. Lloyd realizes that inner peace means for them to unleash their power within, and they successfully do this,using their elemental powers and escaping from the collapsing temple. As they fall of a cliff, Wu saves them with his ship,the Destiny`s Bounty and they head towards Ninjago. Garmadon arrives and tries to control Meowthra with the weapons but Meowthra eats Garmadon instead. Lloyd and the crew arrive and begin fighting Garmadon's army. As Lloyd approaches Meowthra, he reveals to everyone that he is the green ninja, and realizes that green means life, which brings everything together. He comforts Meowthra and tells Garmadon he forgives him and that he's sorry. Garmadon cries tears of fire, which causes Meowthra to spit him out. After reconciling, Garmadon moves in with Lloyd and Koko, Meowthra becomes the mascot of Ninjago, and Lloyd is hailed as a hero.

The following day, Batman's alter ego, Bruce Wayne, attends the city's winter gala, which is celebrating both the retirement of and the ascension of his daughter as the city's new, only to be infuriated by Barbara's plans to restructure the police to function without the need of Batman. Without warning, Joker crashes the party with the city's, all of whom surrender, with the exception of, who disappears during the confusion. Suspecting his arch-rival is up to something, Batman plots to steal 's Phantom Zone Projector, a device that can banish anyone to the which houses some of the most dangerous villains in the Lego multiverse. Just as he plans his heist of the device, intervenes and advises him to take charge of, whom Bruce unwittingly adopted as his ward during the gala. Reluctantly agreeing to do so, Batman fosters Dick as, whereupon the pair successfully recover the Projector from the, and break into to send Joker to the Phantom Zone. Suspecting that the Joker wanted to be sent there, Barbara locks up Batman and Robin for their reckless actions. While the Projector is being seized as evidence, Harley steals it back as part of Joker's plan and frees him, allowing him to return to Gotham with all the villains he had recruited in the Phantom Zone, including, the, the, a and a,,, a, the, Lord Vampyre, and his clones, and the. Realizing that the city does need him, Barbara releases Batman and Robin and teams up with them and Alfred to stop the Joker. Although Batman finds himself able to trust and rely on his new team upon reaching, he chooses to send them away rather than losing them like his parents. Upon facing him alone, Joker believes that Batman is incapable of change and zaps him to the Phantom Zone before stealing the 's stash of confiscated bombs. Arriving in the Phantom Zone, Batman witnesses the harm his selfishness has caused to everyone and slowly accepts his greatest fear. Making a deal with the Zone's gatekeeper Phyllis, a talking Lego brick, to be allowed back to Gotham in order to retrieve the Zone's escaped prisoners, Batman arrives in time to save his teammates, apologizing to them for his actions, and requesting their help to stop Joker. Realizing that Joker plans to use the explosives he took to destroy the city's Energy Facility, thus causing the city to come apart and be destroyed, Batman turns Barbara into, before he, his team, and Gotham City's other villains, who felt neglected by Joker, manage to successfully send the escaped villains back to the Phantom Zone. However, the group fail to stop Joker's bombs going off as the explosion begins to tear the city apart at the plates beneath it. Knowing this was his fault, Batman reluctantly convinces Joker that he is the true reason for being the hero he is before they, their friends and allies, and the city's inhabitants, chain-link themselves together and pull the plates back together, saving the city. With the city saved, Batman prepares to be taken back into the Phantom Zone to fulfill his bargain only to be rejected by Phyllis who chooses to let him remain after seeing how much he had changed in order to save everyone. Batman allows Joker and the rest of his rogues gallery to temporarily escape with the confidence that whenever they return, they will be no match for his new alliance with Robin, Batgirl, and Alfred. The animation supervisor on, director of The Lego Batman Movie. After the success of The Lego Movie, gave the green light to further multiple Lego movies being produced, including The Lego Batman Movie; Chris McKay, who co-directed The Lego Movie, was brought on board to direct the film, marking this as his solo directorial debut. In an interview about his work on the film, McKay stated that working on the film was 'a very mixed blessing' owing partly to the film's hectic time schedule for its production, remarking that the two and half years allocated to the film made it difficult to fit in everything that he wanted for the movie, considering his earlier work on The Lego Movie. His work on The Lego Batman Movie was influenced by the comedy portrayed in both and film series, with his pitch for the film to the studios being described as like ' as directed by '. His proposal to combine all the Batman eras featured in the comic book series and various media formats, including movies and comic series, despite a couple of issues—the total inconsistency inherent to such a task, and Lego rejecting some of the characters he proposed to include in the film—was based on his desire of how to portray Robin within the film's setting. In an interview regarding his version of the superhero duo, McKay stated: 'I was thinking that we were basically taking the Burt Ward Robin and sticking him in the Batmobile with the Zack Snyder/Ben Affleck Batman, or the Frank Miller Batman. And putting these two different energies together. Somebody who’s like the grumpiest, dark grittiest, broodiest Batman with the most positive, indefatigable kid.' Batman and pop culture references [ ] As part of its production, the movie was designed to make numerous references to previous Batman movies, cartoons and comics. These include: the 1940s; the films (1966), (1989), (1992), (1995), (1997), (2005), (2008), (2012), (2016), and (2016); the television shows (1960s), (1990s), (2000s), and (2000s); and the comics #27 (Batman's introductory story),, and.

Climactic events from past Batman films including the Joker have been mentioned, including 'the one with the parade and the music' (1989's Batman) and 'the two boats' ( The Dark Knight). Alongside Joker, the main antagonist of the film's story, and Superman, who features heavily and has notable links to the films (1978) and its sequel (1980), many other DC characters, both villains associated with Batman and other DC superheroes, feature in the film.

On, the film has a score of 75 out of 100, based on 48 critics, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'. Audiences polled by gave the film an average grade of 'A–' on an A+ to F scale. Mike Ryan of gave the film a positive review, praising its comedy, and saying: ' The LEGO Batman Movie isn’t the same experience as watching The LEGO Movie, but I also don’t think it's trying to be. It’s trying to be a fun superhero movie with clever callbacks to previous Batman films (every single Batman movie all the way back to the 1940s serials are referenced) that can, at least, provide DC superhero fans with a taste of fun amidst all the doom and gloom. (That can either be a reference to 'the real world' or the current films, you can choose either one you want or both.) And at that, The LEGO Batman Movie succeeds.' Chris Nashawaty of gave the film a 'B+' and wrote, ' LEGO Batman revs so fast and moves so frenetically that it becomes a little exhausting by the end. It flirts with being too much of a good thing. But rarely has corporate brainwashing been so much fun and gone down with such a delightful aftertaste.' Justin Chang of the was positive in his review, saying, 'In its best moments, this gag-a-minute Bat-roast serves as a reminder that, in the right hands, a sharp comic scalpel can be an instrument of revelation as well as ridicule.' Michael O'Sullivan of praised the film for its heart, humor, and action which, 'snap together, with a satisfying click.'

The family live off whatever they scavenge from cargo holds, offices and hotels – including a steady stream of transient workers who populate the airport’s soulless hub. When Lena, a young Polish office cleaner, is befriended by Birdie, she gets drawn into a nightmarish world of torture, murder and perversity. Imprisoned in a suburban House of Horrors and designated a ‘Mummy’s Girl’, Lena’s only options appear to be to become part of the family – and join them in their insanity – or die. Louisa May Alcott I’m reading Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women right now. Throughout the book, the March sisters refer to their mother as “marmee.” This looks like an odd term of endearment until you remember that Alcott grew up (and set her book in) Eastern Massachusetts. Given that her accent was probably non-rhotic (i.e. She dropped her r’s), “marmee” is essentially a different way of writing modern-day mommy. This got me thinking. We have several informal words for “mother” in English: mum (heard in much of England), mom (heard in much of America), and mam (heard in Ireland and Northern England). But are these actually different words, or are they just, in some sense, the same word? Although “ mum,” “ mam,” and “ mom” read differently, they’re often pronounced in a very similar way. Here’s a comparison of three different dialects, and their “mom” pronunciations (don’t worry if you aren’t proficient in IPA — I’ll explain after): London: “mum” — [mɐm] General American: “mom” — [mɑm] Manchester, UK: “mam” — [mam] Whether you understand the IPA symbols above or not, the point is that in these three dialects, the words are quite close in pronunciation. To be fair, there are some regions where this is not the case. In the Western US, for example, mom is often more clearly “ mawm.” Still, is it possible that mom and mum and mam began as different spellings rather than different words? I suspect this may be the case because written usage of them seems fairly recent. Mom and mum appear to only date back to the 19th Century in written form. I’m curious if perhaps mam is the earliest of these, and mom and mum were just different ways of rendering this. But that’s all I can say for now. I’ve been able to find little information as to whether these words have some common derivation. Google searches of “mom vs. Mum” or “mom mum mam” don’t yield anything substantial. I haven’t found much info about their etymologies either. Any thoughts? Just to back up Jon on the West Midlands “mom” as [mɒm] thing – this is a well-known phenomenon in that region, and this spelling is used by many speakers there – some of whom apparently feel quite passionately about this, cf Academic sources are hard to come by, but here’s a nice sample of a West Midlands dialect with a couple of “moms” clearly audible: trawicks, “mom” pronounced with a Brummie accent would be closer to [mʊm] so I think we can discount this explanation. As to what this tells us etymologically, I have no idea. The “butt” vs. “bum” question is interesting too. ![]() In the United Kingdom. For the mother. The stay-at-home dad arrangement allows the mother to work without having to use a daycare or a nanny. I think they say “bum” more than Americans (think of Tom Green). In fact when I’ve heard Americans say bum, they were usually imitating Tom Green. Since the vowels in “strut,” “lot” and “caught” all seem to hover around in a similar vowel space. There isn’t a merger of those vowels in any North American accent as far as I know. But I think in some cases Canadian STRUT can be more open than it is in my accent (I don’t know about yours or anyone else’s). This is because “cot” and “caught” merge in a low and far back position and this leaves the low central area open. So STRUT can move in that direction. It’s something like [ɐ] in some Canadian accents I’ve heard. But of course I can’t say every Canadian pronounces it the same way. ![]() ![]() The OED seems to share your guess, but without substatiating it: mama, n.1 (and int.) Brit. /məˈmɑː/, /ˈmamə/, U.S. /ˈmɑmə/, /məˈmɑ/ Forms: 15– mama, 15– mamma; U.S. Regional18 mammer. (Show Less) Etymology: Of uncertain origin, but probably ultimately. Having lived in the States, after being educated in England, then marrying a Texan I have come to the following conclusion: Americans speak American, English speak English. The similarities and the history of the languages makes some believe one is right and one is wrong. There are two different languages that happen to have a close connection. Mr Webster (of American dictionary fame) decided to compile his dictionary with the specific objective of distinguishing his inherited language from its origins. Hence different words, different spellings and different accentuation of syllables. Then, of course, there are all the regional variations and the influences of languages from all over the world. Latin died (OK, mortally wounded then) because the Romans would not let it evolve. My wife pointed out that the English language taken west across the Atlantic was that of the seventeenth century. For those who wish to do so making a comparison of today’s English language and spelling to that used by voyagers on the Mayflower yields words, syntax and grammar differences that, at times, may begin to explain why we speak different languages on the two sides of the ocean. As soon as English was floated over the sea and landed on another continent it began to evolve in a different direction from the evolution path of its origin. By the way, my English mother used to delight in receiving two Mother’s Day cards every year one addressed to Mum (in March), and another addressed to Mom (in May). Americans speak English. The language is English it is not American and neither is it French, Russian or any other language. Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, Americans, and the British all speak English as do a few other countries which have taken it on as their national language as ex colonials, including India where it is still a major language and the language of most higher education. You could be forgiven for thinking, hearing Indians speak that the language is English but it is. Just as you could be forgiven hearing some Americans speak, that it is English, but it is. They are most definitely not two different languages anymore than French Canadians are speaking a different language to the French. They may be speaking an older version of French but it remains French. Americans may speak in what equates to regional colloquial English at times but it remains English. The Americans, partly in a bid to distance themselves from Mother England, and partly to simplify, one would say, dumb down the language, have done a lot of work on changing spelling, but it remains English although not correctly spelled English if one is to study the core language. American spelling may make it easier for the less bright to learn to spell but it rather subtracts from the substance and depth of the words which have been tinkered with. If you were correct that the language Americans speak and the language other English speakers use were different languages, then they would not be in essence, spelling aside, exactly the same language with the same rules, structure and vocabulary. There is no doubt that Americans have their own colloquialisms, which are sometimes home-grown, but so do all English speakers around the world and for that matter, around Britain. But a few colloquialisms does not another language make. It is not even dialect. What is perhaps interesting is how little English has evolved as you suggest in those other nations which use it as their mother tongue. But that no doubt is because of the vastly and ever-increasing capacity for connection and communication which kept people in touch so that language had neither need or opportunity to wander off on its own merry way. One demonstration of the impact of communication on language is Australia, and I would add Canada, (Quebec aside), where with the same sorts of size in terms of country, accent and pronunciation remain pretty consistent from one side to the other. Perhaps the fact that both nations are marginally younger from the US has made the difference because there are regional accents in the US. Although no doubt higher population in the US is a factor. But nowhere has English developed in such variety of form as the United Kingdom. Then again that happened over thousands of years and has decreased in recent centuries in the age of communication. In one of those lovely ironies, talking language, those who study accent have decided that the ‘modern’ English accent is actually very like the Australian accent – a development which has come about through the addiction British children and teenagers have had to Australian television programmes in the past 40 years. A ‘win for the ex-colonials perhaps. Then again, the Australian accent is an amalgam of various English regional accents, various regional Scottish accents, various regional Irish accents and no doubt a good pinch of German as these were our main early settler groups. Language as ever is a living, evolving entity and always fascinating. I grew up around Boston, USA. While I always spell it “Mom”, I, along with many others with a Boston accent, pronounce it “Mum”. When I travel outside of New England, other Americans seem to think I sound English in my pronunciation of “Mom”. The rest of America undoubtedly says Mom and does not pronounce the “O” with a “U” sound like I do. Although, I only say “Mum” when I’m talking to my mother directly. If I was talking about her, I would say “Mother” (pronounced “Muthah”). I also have the same issue pronouncing the word “Hot”, where it almost sounds like I’m saying, “Hut”. I’m not sure if it’s a regional thing, or just me though. I’m from NYC where people pronounce ER quite like people in Boston do. If I talk with my parents, I always say MAH. Mom is pronounced as MAHM. I always distinguish COT from CAUGHT. However, my pronunciation of AW sounds like wuh to some friends of mine coming from outside NYC. So it’s kinda impossible for me to pronounce Mom as MAWM, for if so, it would sound like MWUHM. A tad weird, huh? I also add R to some schwa’s while constantly dropping R after some schwa’s 1, doctor=DAHKTUH 2, Selena=Selener, quoted as saying from Nicki Minaj ft. Justin Bieber “But I gotta keep an eye on SelenER” My mom’s from Chicago where people speak more refined. She’s kinda pissed off when hearing me speaking vulgarly. I’m from Manitoba Canada myself. I would say that “Mom” is the most common with “Mum” being less common but in free variation and “Mam” almost unheard of. The rural western accent tends to pronounce LOT/THOUGHT as a rounded back vowel, while more urban accents tend to be unrounded. Most rurally influenced people also tend to have very back TRAP vowels even before nasals, so the word ma’am sounds like an eastern American Mom or northern English Mam. Personally I say Mom in a way an American might hear as Mawm, and this seems to be quite common, although more urban/general Canadian accents might sound more like the General American variety. I do catch myself saying Mum now and then though. As for the STRUT vowel it’s my opinion that rural westerners tend toward a more back sound especially when being emphatic, while urban accents are more centralised but not necessarily lowered. I did not see your comment before I replied above but I made a similar point. However, Canada is not alone for the Australian accent is the same across the continent, a land mass the same size as the continental US. Perhaps the biggest influence on Canada though has been the American accent. I first visited Canada in the early 70’s – Vancouver, Alberta, Montreal, Quebec City and Calgary and would agree with your comment then. However, I lived in Vancouver about five years ago and it was very, very clear then that the BC accent, particularly in Vancouver, was different and very, very American. The homogenous nature of the Australian accent has been easier to maintain because we don’t share any close borders with anyone, let alone another English speaking nation. New Zealand is an interesting example because that accent has changed dramatically in the past decade or two. It would be interesting to know why. If you look at NZ television news and programmes prior to say the 90’s the Australian and NZ accents were quite similar. The NZ accent has in fact become extremely pronounced and distinctive and utterly unlike anything spoken in Australia or probably anywhere else in the English speaking world. Although there are similarities to the South Africans and some English dialects. Replacing ‘i’ and ‘a’ with the sound ‘e’ and vice versa is the most distinctive where apple becomes epple; six becomes sex and deck becomes dick. But modern communications have gone a long way toward diminishing accent differences and therefore helping all of us English speakers to understand each other. And with threads like this, American changes to their spelling aside, we all talk the same language and we all understand each other pretty much. I won’t dispute your observation that the Vancouver accent is “very, very American”, since that was your experience. It’s not my experience though, as someone born in Vancouver and having lived here most of my 65-year life. I would agree with rya about the homogeneity of English from Ontario (except maybe the Ottawa valley, which I’m not familiar with) westward to BC. I do detect something distinctive in the speech of many Albertans, but it’s subtle. Btw it’s common for Canadians of my generation to say “mum”, but the younger ones say “mom”, I’m sure from the American influence. If you were born and brought up in Vancouver I am sure you ‘hear’ the accent differently. Having lived in nearly a dozen countries around the world and travelled constantly for nearly 30 years there is something of which I became aware long ago – you don’t ‘hear’ your own accent. In an airport I know who is Australian because they do not have an accent! Of course they do, but I don’t hear it. Just as you would not hear the Vancouver accent in particular. I think Canada is a lot like Australia when it comes to accent – fairly homogenous – with slight differences sometimes. Having spent time in Calgary, Ottawa, Toronto I could not perceive too much difference between them and a Vancouver accent but then someone visiting Australia would not pick up the very slight differences between Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaideand they are slight. The Canadian accent is very American, and one presumes it did not happen the other way. The major difference, so as not to be in error, Canadians don’t like being taken for Americans just as New Zealanders don’t like being taken for Australians – although the ‘bigger’ country doesn’t care – is the ‘out’ sound, which is clearly Scottish in origin, but which has remained in the Canadian accent. Wait until they say ‘about’ and catch the ‘out’ sound and you generally know if you have a Canadian. Although even this distinction has been diluted in the past 20 years and with the American accent so pervasive through radio and television, may well disappear anyway. Accents, like language evolve. I always find it interesting listening to old – 30’s, 40’s – radio and television programmes where the American accent is much less pronounced and quite English. Ditto for Australia, Canada and New Zealand. And then it all began to change. The NZ accent is interesting though because now it is quite distinctive and very ‘hard’ and strong where the apples becomes epple and sex becomes six etc., in ways simply not heard twenty years ago. Why the change it is hard to say, but change it has, so that now it has more in common with the South African accent than the Australian. Given the number of Kiwis in Australia however, should they return, the accent may well change back to a variation of Australian. One of the more interesting ‘accent’ impacts, and for Australians as ‘ex-colonials’ satisfying, has been the Australianisation of the general English accent which, the experts deduce, comes from two generations of British school-children brought up on Australian television soaps! Ironic really. The British fear was the Americanisation of the English accent and that did not happen. Instead it was the Australian accent which prevailed. My guess is that is the case because of the connections for the Australian accent must in origin be a combination of Scottish, Irish and the numerous English dialects given that was our original immigrant base for the nation. The introduction, like Canada and the US, of dozens of different nationalities from the mid 1800’s has no doubt done the rest of the work although the Australian accent of today is different, as I said earlier, to that of forty years ago. The only constant in life is change. Interesting observations- I agree that “mum” (in a London accent) is not too different from “mam” (in a northern English accent), and “mom” (in an American accent) A possible spanner in the works is the East Midlands (at least certainly in Nottingham), where we use “mum”, but pronounced in a *northern* manner, i.e. Rhyming with “plum” spoken in a northern accent. This sounds nothing like any of the above. And the already mentioned West Midlands “mom”, promounced to rhyme with “tom”, which sounds different again. The interesting thing is the spelling. Given that both the US and South Africa use ‘mom’ there is a fair bet that the word has derived from Dutch or Nederlands given the preponderance of Dutch settlers in both countries. Australia, NZ and Britain in the main use mum so one assumes that is an English derivation. The Americans have worked hard a couple of times in their history to ‘remove’ traces of their English connections and despite changing spelling, they were rather stuck with the English language. They do all have the same meaning but why some do mum and others do mom was the original question. Given the fact that South Africa and the US both use Mom and their accents are nothing alike even if you trawl through the various American accents and the various South African accents, the common factor in both instances is a high number of Dutch immigrants. Given that countries which use Mum, Australia, NZ, etc., did not have the Dutch influence is another indication. I suspect the Canadians got Mom from the US and probably did not start out that way unless they had high levels of Dutch settlers. And given the variety of accents in the US where Mom is spelled Mom but pronounced very differently, it’s a good chance there is a common cause. At this point the Dutch factor leads the way from what I can see. If it were about phonetics one would expect some variety of spelling. The English language has been evolving for thousands of years. Words or spelling we use today may be centuries old. There were two substantial waves of Dutch immigrants to England – one in the 12th century and another in the 16th century. Links between the Netherlands, particularly Flanders, have been strong throughout England’s history and this could certainly explain if there is a Dutch connection, and I say if, why a word like Mom appears in some places and not others. Many of the Flemish immigrants settled in the north although the largest groups were in London and Scotland. I am not saying it is either – not sure Occam’s Razor applies to language in quite the same way. Or rather, it could be applied on many counts. I perceive the spelling of a word which is used in two English speaking nations with a strong Dutch settler influence and in a part of Britain with long historical connections to Flanders where the language is Nederlands and not found in other English speaking nations which did not have a strong Dutch settler influence. Then again we could both be right and your ‘back vowel’ may be of Dutch origin. Foto: tehnorati.com 4. Denumirea planetei vine de la sangerosul zeu roman al razboiului, Marte; 5.

From master storyteller Guillermo del Toro comes THE SHAPE OF WATER, an otherworldly fable set against the backdrop of Cold War era America circa 1962. In the hidden high-security government laboratory where she works, lonely Elisa (Sally Hawkins) is trapped in a life of isolation. Elisa's life is changed forever when she and co-worker Zelda (Octavia Spencer) discover a secret classified experiment. Rounding out the cast are Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Doug Jones. The Shape of Water (2017): I would say this is the kind of film that's more of an experience rather than a movie. Walking out of it, it feels like you just had a really beautiful, odd and emotional dream. ![]() Now I'm gonna warn you right away, this isn't a movie for everyone, but I think if you're the right kind of person for it, you already know that you'll like it. It's very art-house, it's very Guillermo Del Toro, it's very weird. Overall I really enjoyed 'The Shape of Water', it leaves you with a good fuzzy feeling in your heart. I loved seeing every frame of it since Guillermo has a very distinctive and stylized look and tone. He manages to create a real world but with a dash of magic and fairy tale to it. The cinematography was absolutely astonishing (especially the colours), set design/costumes/etc were fantastic, the creature was really cool and pleasant to the eye (good mix of practical and CGI), the acting was good (even though the Russian was iffy). My only problem with the movie was the fact that it felt a little too long, I think a couple of tiny things could've been cut here and there and the movie would've been just as good. There's also a couple of things that felt unaddressed but as the viewer you let it slide and forget about them since you're focused on the main story. Basically, if you knew about this movie and you were interested in seeing it, see it. If you don't know anything about it or the works of Del Torro, probably don't. If I had to boil it down (egg joke) to a score it would be somewhere around 7.5/10 P/S Do NOT see it with kids unless you want to have some VERY awkward moments. ![]() ![]() ![]() Mira la pelicula La forma del agua (2017) completa online gratis en fuente rapidas y confiables a un solo click con opcion de descarga free.

January 31st, 2018 This is one of the worse times of year for the home market. Until we start getting the holiday blockbusters landing on DVD / Blu-ray, there’s not much to talk about. That’s not to say there are no good releases, as,, and are all easily worth picking up. There are just no big releases. For example, the Pick of the Week goes to on, which was sadly ignored by moviegoers when it first hit theaters. January 23rd, 2018 The nominations were announced starting at just after 5 am Pacific time. They do this every year and no one has been able to adequately explain why to me. At least there were some interesting results this year. Led the way with 13 nominations, which is one below the current record and nearly as many as the next two films combined. Overall, there were seventeen films that earned two or more nominations. January 20th, 2018, the North American Theater Owners, have released their annual box office numbers, and 2017 had some mixed results. The total box office was down 2.55% to $11.09 billion, which is the third-biggest yearly box office total of all time, behind $11.12 billion earned in 2015 and $11.37 billion earned in 2016. Meanwhile, ticket prices rose 4% to $8.97. This means total attendance was 1.236 billion, the lowest since 1995. That is troubling, but not as apocalyptic as some have made it out to be, as it is only 2.7% lower than 2014’s attendance figure. Obviously, we would like to see increases in this figure every year, but we shouldn’t panic just yet. If 2018 bounces back, then we can still say the overall box office is healthy. If we see another 6-point drop in attendance in 2018, then we can panic. January 11th, 2018 The nominations were announced and this time led the way with 12 nominations. The same films appear on many of the lists of nominees, but so far no one film has come to dominate the list. This makes it interesting, to say the least. There’s a good chance no one film will win the majority of prestige awards and that multiple films will have lots of reason to celebrate on February 18th when the awards are handed out. December 19th, 2017 We already ’s incredible debut yesterday, but there were other films that were in theaters over the weekend. The Last Jedi earned nearly 80% of the total, so the rest of the box office had to settle for the leftovers. Was a distant second with just $13.40 million, which is lower than our low. Overall, the box office more than tripled from hitting $278 million. More importantly, it rose by 31% when compared to this weekend. Year-to-date, 2017 cut 2016’s lead by nearly $100 million in just one week. Granted, 2017 is still behind by $320 million or 3.0% at $10.10 billion to $10.42 billion. However, I just wanted 2017 to cut the lead to $250 million and that looks a lot more likely now than it did even a month ago. December 14th, 2017 2017 is behind 2016’s pace by over $400 million and and this weekend is the last chance it has to cut that deficit by any real margin. This weekend, debuts and it is practically a guaranteed monster hit. Made just over $400 million in the 2016 calendar year, while earned just over $650 million. The Last Jedi is widely expected to earn somewhere in-between those results. In the meantime, there is one other wide release,, which is the textbook definition of counter-programming. The is just hoping it doesn’t get lost in the crowd. This weekend, the total box office was $211.57 million. I give The Last Jedi about a 50/50 chance of topping that by itself. December 12th, 2017 It was a good at the box office, relatively speaking, as most films in the top five beat. Granted, this was mostly by tiny amounts, but it added up. We still fell 20% compared to to $84 million. This is 1.2% higher than the same weekend and we were expecting a similarly close loss, so this is a surprise victory. The year-over-year numbers are almost identical to last week, with this year down by 4.1% or $420 million when compared to last year. Right now 2017 has pulled in $9.79 billion, while 2016 had a running tally of $10.21 billion. December 10th, 2017 remains the number one movie at the box office this weekend by a considerable margin, mainly due to a lack of serious competition from new releases. ’s animated adventure will gross about $18.3 million this weekend, for a domestic total of $135.5 million. The film will also pile up another $55.3 million internationally, taking its worldwide cume to $389.5 million. It still has some big openings to come, including Brazil, Korea, the UK, and Japan in January, so it has some way to go, although its progress will be eclipsed by for the next few weeks. December 9th, 2017 by earning first place on. It earned $4.27 million, giving it a running tally of $121.48 million after 17 days of release and putting it on pace for $19 million over the weekend. Good news: This is a little better than expected. Bad news: Next weekend could be a mess, as the film will not only have to deal with, but as well. If it can avoid being demolished at the box office next weekend, then it will stick around in the top ten for the rest of the year. Even if if does get demolished, it still has a shot at $200 million domestically, but it will be close. December 8th, 2017 There is only one wide release this weekend,. However, it is barely opening wide and is widely expected to miss the top ten. This means the top five will barely change from and should have no trouble remaining on top of the chart. This weekend, opened in second place, behind. Office Christmas Party was hardly a monster hit, but it was strong enough to keep 2017 from winning the year-over-year comparison. Hopefully, it will still be close. December 5th, 2017 It was a good weekend, as every film in the top five beat at the. Granted, in most cases it was by a tiny amount, but any victory is worth celebrating at this point. It has been a really bad year at the box office. (Or to be more accurate, the summer was historically bad and the rest of the year hasn’t been able to compensate.) led the way with $27.53 million and thanks to the holidays, should stick around in the top ten until early 2018 helping it get past $200 million with ease. The overall box office fell 44% from to $105 million; however, it is a post-holiday weekend, so a decline like this was expected. More importantly, the box office rose 9.7% from and this is reason to celebrate. Year-to-date, 2017 is still behind 2016’s pace by 4.1% / $410 million, at $9.68 billion to $10.09 billion, but if we can maintain this pace for the rest of the year, then we could really cut into 2016’s lead. December 2nd, 2017 beat by a tiny margin on, earning $6.28 million. This is 67% lower than its, but its opening Friday was also a Holiday, so that’s to be expected. Look for $27 million over the full weekend, which is a little lower than ’s second weekend of release, but the gap between the two is closing. Given Coco’s and its A+ from CinemaScore, it might start catching up by this time next week. November 30th, 2017 There are no wide releases this weekend, which means should have no trouble remaining on top of the chart. In fact, most of the top five will remain the same as. Maybe one of the Awards Season contenders will expand enough to grab a spot in the top five, but that isn’t really likely. This weekend, remained in first place, as there were also no new releases to compete against. 2017 should be able to win in the year-over-year comparison, but it will be awfully close. November 28th, 2017 gave yet another reason to be thankful for Thanksgiving. It topped the chart, to give the studio 10 of the 11 biggest Thanksgiving openings of all time. Meanwhile, fell a little bit faster than expected, and $250 million domestically might be out of reach. It depends on how well it holds onto its theater count when opens. Overall, the box office fell 5.2% from to $189 million. This is 2.4% higher than the same weekend. Granted, that’s not enough to deal with inflation, but at this point, I’m willing to use any excuse to celebrate. Year-to-date, 2017 was able to close the gap with 2016, but is still behind 4.1% with $9.53 billion to $9.95 billion. November 25th, 2017 It’s the Saturday after Black Friday, so things are returning to normal. Is leading the way, which no one should be terribly. It earned $13.24 million on, which was about 15% lower than ’s opening day. It held on better on, cutting the gap to about 10% with $8.93 million. However, by, it was behind Moana by 15% again. That said, if is maintains this pace throughout the rest of the weekend it will earn $48 million / $71 million during its opening weekend. This is almost exactly as I predicted and more than enough to make very happy. Furthermore, thanks to and an amazing A plus from CinemaScore, as well as no real competition for the next two weeks, the film should have excellent legs. November 22nd, 2017 is the only wide release of the week, which is amazing for Thanksgiving weekend. This should boost its chances at the box office and it is now expected to open in first place. Was expected to repeat as box office champion this weekend, but that’s likely not going to happen now. This weekend, earned $82 million over the five-day weekend. I don’t think Coco will match that, but it will come close enough to top the chart. November 21st, 2017 easily won the race for first place on the box office chart. However, it only managed $93.84 million, which is substantially lower than it was to open with. In fact, it’s the first film in the to not open with more than $100 million. (To be fair, it is doing better internationally.) was a surprising hit in second place and it helped the box office rise 32% from to $199 million. More importantly, this weekend was 26% higher than the same weekend. 2017 ended its most recent slump, but it is still 4.5% or $430 million behind last year’s pace at $9.21 billion to $9.65 billion. November 19th, 2017 was meant to the be the big pay-off for the first phase of the, bringing together the characters introduced in,, and, and setting the stage for next year’s. The huge success of this Summer seemed to be just the kick the franchise needed, and, given the history of the, which enjoyed steadily building success leading up to the gigantic opening of, an opening north of $150 million, and maybe even approaching $200 million seemed a possibility a couple of months ago. In that context, the $96 million projected weekend announced by this morning looks like a huge disappointment. What does it mean for the franchise? November 18th, 2017 As, dominated the box office chart, earning four times its nearest competitor. However, it only managed $38.8 million on Friday, which is well below expectations. In fact, tracking has been dropping and the film is now widely expected to open with less than $100 million over the weekend, making it the only film in the to fail to reach the century mark during its opening weekend. There are a number of reasons why this film is struggling. Firstly, except for, no film in the franchise has earned good reviews and mainstream audiences may have given up on the franchise. Secondly, the troubled production meant a lot of people who were part of the target audience, but not hardcore fans, are taking a wait-and-see approach here. Since its are bad, these people are staying home. Its CinemaScore is just a B plus, so it won’t have great legs going forward. Finally, there’s. That film is proving to be stronger than expected competition, as it started faster and is holding up better than most similar films. I think is going to have to rethink the entire DCEU before going forward. Is already in post-production and is definitely going forward. After that, I’m not sure what films will or will not be made. November 17th, 2017 will have no trouble earning first place this weekend, but it looks like it won’t match ’s opening. The latest in the opened with $13 million in previews, compared to $14.5 million for Thor: Ragnarok. Assuming the films have the same legs, then Justice League will earn $110 million during its opening weekend, which is a little lower than our. Unfortunately, its are significantly weaker than the and that’s going to hurt its legs. I still think it will top $100 million, but it will be closer to ’s $103 million opening weekend than to our original prediction. November 16th, 2017 is hoping to be the biggest hit of the month, but two things could get in the way of that goal. Firstly, got off to a faster than expected start. Secondly, Justice League’s are significantly weaker. There are two other films coming out this week, and, both of whom are simply hoping not to be lost in a crowded marketplace. This crowded marketplace should help 2017 end its slump against 2016. This weekend, opened in first place with just under $75 million, while there were three other films that earned between $10 million and $20 million. This year, Justice League should top $100 million with ease, while Thor: Ragnarok will earn more than $25 million. The top two films this year should do better than the top five films from last year and that should lead to 2017 earning a comfortable win over 2016 in the year-over-year comparison. November 1st, 2017 wasn’t a good month; then again, outside of a few bright spots, the overall box office has been a disaster since early summer. I would love to say November will turn things around, but, while it should be better, in this case “better” is a relative term. There are two films on this list with a chance at $300 million, and, while is nearly a guarantee for $200 million. By comparison, last had a similar result with three films earning between $200 million and $300 million, but none topping that figure. This means, if Thor: Ragnarok and Justice League both get to that milestone, then 2017 could cut into 2016’s lead during the month. It will still take a minor miracle for 2017 to catch up in the end, but just cutting the lead in half by the end of December would be a reason to celebrate at this point. May 25th, 2017. |
