    That's a really solid 9th round pick. Probably going to get $40 million at least and that's usually a lot better than most 9th rounders.

    Yep. Was between the Morgan Freeman/Tommy Lee Jones buddy comedy or that one.

    I'll see the latter, but figure more people see the former.

    International CGI animated films seem to be a crapshoot but this one's got good reviews at least.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Will Ferrell comedy opening 4th of July weekend and trans gets it in the 7th round ... that's a straight up steal right there.

    Wright has never been the box office draw. Baby Driver will not perform 4th round numbers.

    Combine all four of his movies, and you still don't hit $100 million. Scott Pilgrim is the highest at $31 for its entire run.

    'Tis a gamble, to be sure. Part of the fun.

    EDIT: Its biggest obstacle is its terrible title. It sounds like it should star Rob Schneider as a chauffeur who falls on hard times and ends up renting his limo out as a mobile baby-sitting service. Hijinks ensue.
