Vulture: the long crazy road to Crazy Rich Asians Aug 09, 10:07
Interesting, JCHU is related to Rachel Chu from the book. Aug 09, 10:51
wife and I are looking forward to the movie, but we watch a lot of rom-coms and to us it's an Asian "Monster-In-Law" =P {nm} Aug 09, 10:19
they may as well give this the most popular oscar award now {nm} Aug 09, 11:24
We still don't know the criteria. $50M by Dec 31? $75M? $100M? Top 100 film by Dec 31? {nm} Aug 09, 11:56
Top 100 is too wide, make that Top 25, no more than 50. {nm} Aug 09, 12:01
best film not for white jewish old men who live in the valley and used to co-produce episodes of Three's Company {nm} Aug 09, 12:24
<which is hopefully changing with new members> {nm} Aug 09, 12:24
A group likely to have an Asian fetish. {nm} Aug 09, 12:28

Link it to P&S spend. {nm} Aug 09, 12:32
*P&A {nm} Aug 09, 12:35
i've often suggested that to the indie spirits. The issue is no one wants to disclose that {nm} Aug 09, 12:38
There is no doubt in my mind that this a $100m movie. $150m is doable IMO. {nm} Aug 09, 12:14
Under $20m for 5 days. {nm} Aug 09, 12:36
My guess is $40m at least over the 5-day and very, very strong legs with repeat business. Aug 09, 14:16
Last night gave me a "Hidden Figures" vibe in terms of audience. Aug 09, 12:51
Good. That's awesome news {nm} Aug 09, 14:57
