‘Dunkirk’ Soars Past $500 Million at the Worldwide Box Office!!!

If you need more evidence that Christopher Nolan is the most bankable director working today, look no further than the box office of Dunkirk. Here’s a plot-light World War II movie with no major movie stars in leading roles and no sci-fi or known IPhook, and yet it’s now grossed over $500 million at the box office.

Warner Bros. Wins Big Over Other Studios at the 2017 Summer Movie Box Office!!

While studios continue to place tentpoles throughout the calendar, the summer movie season is still a warzone where every weekend new films vie for supremacy at the box office. It’s easier to be a film in February or March and make a splash rather than one that’s released from May through August. Furthermore, summer 2017 wasn’t great for the domestic box office as theaters reported … Continue reading Warner Bros. Wins Big Over Other Studios at the 2017 Summer Movie Box Office!!

When the first teaser trailer for Cars 3 arrived back in November, everyone was pretty taken aback by how bleak and dark the tone was.
