Weekend Box Office 2/25 - Black Panther Reigns

#1 Post by AndyDursin »

...and anyone wonders why Paramount is where they're at (with ANNIHILATION flopping over this weekend):
Paramount continues to pay for the sins of the previous executive administration of the late Brad Grey and Vice Chairman Rob Moore. Grey had a predilection for auteur type films that could potentially be awards bait read Arrival, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, mother!, Suburbicon and Downsizing, but the previous regime overspent on them greatly and that’s why most of them have capsized at the box office. $68M for absurdist comedy Downsizing? $30M for the gonzo thriller mother!?
