In the note
And that’s what happened here, instead of doing something that would be good for the industry, the IAC protected their honey pot, cause they have to keep their numbers up. Anyway, with the expected accuracy and efficacy of a consultant suggesting that Golden Corral should offer Ozempic shots at the entrance to help 'get their numbers up', here are some thoughts on the weekend box-office. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol III - Another great opening for Disney/Marvel, but if you want to play this week’s version of ’the lazy entertainment press bingo game’ (because this is going to gross less than Guardians of the Galaxy Vol II), try to guess how many pieces will be written this weekend and next week using the either the term ’super-hero fatigue’, ‘woke politics’ or 'Ron Desantis’.
