I wonder if the movie getting negative press hurt it a bit.
What Eastwood did to Scruggs is so gross.
The world should move on from Clint Eastwood

Box Office Pro has it at $12 million OW and $59 million total domestic.
Early morning Wednesday for TROS, not seeing any info for CATS.
Cats can't even leave a scratch on the box office.
... I'm not apologizing for that.

Did they really think "Cats" would preform like "Greatest Showman"? The former has been a used as a punchline for decades in popular culture while still being popular enough to keep touring. I would think it'd do ok with older people who liked the musical itself, but it's not going to grow by WoM (I'd think) when all its music has already been around forever. "Showman" had new music to get new fans, regardless of its quality as a movie.
Is Playmobil doing worse than Oogieloves or Delgo?

It's so weird that Olivia Wilde would go from "girl power" Booksmart to this role
Actors like to work, and Eastwood is also an Actor's Director.
Unfortunately I think a lot of actors want to say on their resume that they worked with Clint Eastwood
The one thing for Richard Jewell is that it could have okay legs through the holiday.
I am surprised Fox News hasn't been trying to get people to see Clint's new movie in droves

It'll be Taylor Swift singing songs from Cats.
Greatest Showman got big because all of the songs were bangers that caught on big in the mainstream. Cats only has one banger (and some would argue even that's debatable).
I am seeing Cats on Friday.
Probably going to have to get a shot of tequila first but I am gonna do it.
I have to know.

It was supposed to come out this year, but got pushed to 2021.
Methinks its not happening regardless of the box office performance of Cats
It utterly baffles me that they can't seem to get a Wicked movie off the ground. Disney should just wait for the rights to expire and make it animated. They've already tried twice to have their piece of the Oz pie.
I still have no idea why anyone thought the way they went with Cats was a good idea. It's an insane idea I need to see at some point, but it's like the worst possible way of doing it. At least if they just dresses everyone up in costumes like the show it'd be way cheaper.

But how would they capitalize on that underserved Furry demographic?

I am hoping for good things not just for the movie but so the discourse does not get any worse than it already is.

The fact that someone greenlit a $300 million dollar Cats film is proof that the people Hollywood are no smarter than you or me. Therefore, I should be running Hollywood so I can greenlit a $300 million live action theatrical version of the lion king broadway play
I am now receiving news that the $300 million budget report was a joke

I am still so fucking angry Disney turned their noses up at Julia Tambor.
Would her The Lion King have been good? Possibly
Would it have been more interesting and less fucking cynical than the Favreau movie? Fuck yes
Everything about that movie looked boring as shit tbh. Something about Eastwood movies always exude that to me, but maybe this time it was a bridge too far for most people. Anecdotal, but the showing of Knives Out that I went to was very much an older crowd. Wonder if that and Ford V Ferrari just jacked Eastwood's audience.
I have thought about writing a screenplay for a few years now and one of the ideas I had was a horror movie where the villain is basically Dirty Harry. A cop who plays by his own rules and a local government that claims to be reigning him and but does not actually give a shit. He'd be a trigger happy overly masculine lawman who cared not for the collateral damage and the community of various factions that fears and despises him. Its meant as a repudiation of the mythology of the heroic lone lawman and the masculine ideals of Clint Eastwood's time.
I could never really develop further on that. I also felt it might have been insensitive to current events of police violence and brutality.

Remember that time Clint Eastwood adapted a Broadway musical and made the entire colour palette grey?
The Tom Hanks Sully movie wasn't good. Dude showed the crash 6 times and wasted a Tom Hanks performance.
We're finally in the SW week, it should perform exceptionally as the last movie of the saga, I hope the leaks are untrue or TLJ would looks like a masterpiece compared to it, verdict in 48h from now.
Get this nonsense out of this thread. Other threads might be stupid enough to fall for spoilers panic but not this one.
Remember the insane meltdowns this forum, reddit, etc had over Endgame spoilers? No one has time for this hot take.
Probably can't see Star Wars until January. Wished it released last Friday I would have saw it this week.
