Where it turns up
Friday, September 27, 2019 Fourth weekend of September 2019
In the note
Because the 24 hour news cycle chased off The Hunt from this weekend’s new offerings, we’ve only got one new film this weekend and we’ll probably be down about 15 or 20% from last year.

In the note
Like I’ve said over and over here, theatrical these days is mostly driven by IP and/or Star Power, and you wold think that all that box-office from the Fast and Furious franchise would generate some unique fanship, but just like Chris Hemsworth there just doesn’t seem to be anything there. Figure this ends up in the very high single digits with a decent shot at 10. #4 The Hunt - Another film I could never figure out.
