THR: Picturestart (Cha Cha Real Smooth) is working on feature film adaptations of Sega's Comix Zone and Space Channel 5. Aug 19, 13:46
The Space Channel 5 plot sounds nothing like the video game Aug 19, 13:51
[but then again, how many die hard fans of either of these obscure titles could there be] {nm} Aug 19, 13:53
That's close enough. Not much story in a dance dance revolution type game. {nm} Aug 19, 14:14
DL: The valets from Ferris Bueller are getting a spinoff movie Aug 19, 13:33
Adam Driver and ? {nm} Aug 19, 13:35
Sam Richardson {nm} Aug 19, 13:37
(or I guess Grandpa, he's 68) {nm} Aug 19, 13:44
Most of the cast of Ferris Bueller are still acting with recent credits should this be a wink, wink cameo fiesta. Aug 19, 14:04
I'd be very surprised if Mia Sara is still acting anywhere. Disappeared w/o a trace (I think) sometime in the late 90s. {nm} Aug 19, 20:05
IMDb has credits for her up to 2013 Aug 20, 09:18
wonder what John Hughes' estate has to say about it (assuming they have a say) {nm} Aug 19, 13:51
DL: Way too early box office update. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero is seeing a 10 million Friday, 17-20 million weekend. Aug 19, 13:05
BEAST 4.1 million Friday, 10 million 3 day. {nm} Aug 19, 13:06
See what I mean? What was that whole 13-14 projection from Jatinder about? {nm} Aug 20, 00:19
DL: Outlander's Sam Heughan attached to star in a feature film adaptation of videogame DAYS GONE for Sony. Aug 19, 12:29
D23Expo: Kristen Bell, Jonathan Groff and Josh Gad are all getting "Disney Legends" awards, so Frozen 3 or D+ announcement? Aug 19, 12:04
Yeah, Idina Menzel as well, definitely some kind of announcement. {nm} Aug 19, 12:05
DL projected FROZEN 2 made $600 million in profit in theatrical. Aug 19, 12:06
Hmm. I thought there wasn't any money to be made in theatrical..... {nm} Aug 19, 14:18
Thank god Antibody will set Frozen 3 at a healthy $50 IPO right?............. {nm} Aug 19, 12:06
The flip side is that none of their past D23 Expo Legends winners have had an immediate project announcement, but..... Aug 19, 12:58
Fathom is doing a weird ComRom festival of Universal Judd Apatow comedies for BROS Aug 19, 11:06
Fandango: SMFSV.OW will feature 11 minutes of new footage. finally Tickets go on sale this Tuesday Aug 19, 10:35
ERC: DRAGON BALL SUPER: SUPER HERO rescued $4M from previews last night, topping BEAST which tracked down just under $1M. Aug 19, 10:04

What's your math? Because Broly opened on a Wednesday. Aug 19, 10:21
I'm long on the OW and CA (and remained long on Beast OW too), so no complaints here. {nm} Aug 19, 10:12
Variety: I wouldn't hold out hope for that SESAME STREET theatrical movie, HBO Max just purged 200 episodes of the series. Aug 19, 10:01
But out of how many episodes? A million? :). (THey also dumped Elmo's talk show... waugh waugh) {nm} Aug 19, 10:03
They still have 456 at the moment. (so over 4x the typical syndication milestone #) {nm} Aug 19, 10:10
As long as all 26 letters and 9 numbers are still covered, I think it'll be fine... but yeah, movie's way up in the air. {nm} Aug 19, 10:34
There was an update here (on HSX) last year that the Sesame Street project was being converted back into a TV series Aug 19, 11:08
CNBC has a good piece on why this is happening (saving money on residuals, essentially) Aug 19, 11:28
BD: director says Orphan sequel could kick off with Esther’s hand “coming up out of the water at the beginning of the movie.” Aug 19, 07:56
They should wait 30 years until Isabelle Fuhrman is in her 50s and then do a prequel where Esther really is a child. {nm} Aug 19, 09:20
BO: BEAST $925K Thursday Domestic Previews Aug 19, 07:36
Medieval will be getting an HSX-wide release on 9/9 in 1,200+ theaters Aug 19, 07:20
That's their first wide, so will Highland Film Group report box office? {nm} Aug 19, 07:24
That's a good question. The main reason I even asked is because I wasn't really familiar with Avenue. Aug 19, 07:25
According to IMDBPro, it released a lot of movies in the late '80s and early '90s including Drugstore Cowboy? {nm} Aug 19, 07:26
Different company. {nm} Aug 19, 07:27
There we go. {nm} Aug 19, 07:32
I hope this does okay... been so many young upstart distributors that have tried and failed. Aug 19, 07:37
Unless they have a brillant viral #Gentleczechs tiktok marketing campaign to immediately unveil...... Aug 19, 07:53
V: Viva Kids has acquired “The Amazing Maurice,” only in theaters on Jan. 13, 2023. UK trailer for [AMAUR] Aug 19, 07:17
WSJ via DL: Cineworld (Regal) has retained bankruptcy lawyers expected to file for Chapter 11 in the next few weeks Aug 19, 07:02
Puck: Ryan Gosling has agreed to join Margot Robbie in the Oceans prequel Aug 19, 05:17
Also yep that DeNiro mob film is a a Zaslav push because Nick Pileggi is a Hamptons buddy of his {nm} Aug 19, 07:13
Let's see when he greenlights his first movie with minority lead/director. {nm} Aug 19, 07:31
Pukk: Ryan Gosling has agreed to star in [OCEN5] {nm} Aug 19, 07:34
We are never gonna get Project Hail Mary are we.. :( {nm} Aug 19, 08:22
side note: I wouldn't mind seeing RGOSL in a Die Hard sequel of some kind...his reactions to adversity are... Aug 19, 08:35
A lot of schools are already back open in the States so that's a VERY low-ball projection for Dragon Ball Aug 19, 06:02
Is it? The last one did $20 Million over a 5 day release {nm} Aug 19, 07:02
Broly had a much smaller release. If this is in 3x the theaters, I'm surprised a similar $ is expected. I figured $20m+ {nm} Aug 19, 07:24
So the next movie will be "Sooty Dancing"? {nm} Aug 19, 12:10
TN: ET doubling its theaters to 793. No official counts for DBSSH Aug 18, 16:48
BOM: DBSSH getting a 3,940 theater launch Aug 18, 16:50
The Numbers says 3,000 for DBSSH Aug 18, 18:01
It's an estimate again from BOP, who was wrong last week on BODIS. {nm} Aug 18, 18:29
DBZ count is from the distributor (Crunchyroll). Bodies was not (A24 doesn't typically give them). {nm} Aug 18, 19:23
The E.T. bookings are standard 2D, and appear to be 1-3 showtimes a day. Aug 18, 17:17
