    Weird there's no data on it; it definitely played in theaters here in Charlotte for at least a couple weeks. Seems to be gone now though. Not sure how to handle it here.
    Yeah, it played here too, and online I can still find a couple places in California where it's still playing. Unfortunately, it looks like it did get released but made very little impact. Fortunately, it doesn't look like it will make very much difference in the final results. I'll wait and see it any numbers show up, but I may just give you a flat $1 million and call it good. I'm guessing it made less than that.

    *Nancy Drew was given a flat $1 million. We have evidence it was released in some theaters, but no evidence of its box office take. My assumption is that it was less than $1 million. If anyone has evidence to the contrary, let me know. Otherwise, this is my best guess for this unusual situation.

    Man, I remember thinking that Captain Marvel and Dumbo were the only two cappers. Turns out there WAS only two cappers, I just picked the wrong movie.

    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?

    Hellboy screwed me. Damn so close. Very happy with Venom 2nd round 191, Bumblebee 3rd 110...you really cant ask for better top 3 without others really screwing up to allow obvious picks to slide and that's not happening.
