Dems in need of a comforting reminder of the importance of their ideal in the post Trump win world is will turn to the Kennedys, no doubt. #FightTheGoodFight

Not sure what the clubs #s will be but this will be an epic over performer. $100m no doubt, maybe opening day

100m opening day? Oh you

I do feel this is gonna smash though.

Modern day Democrats don't care about the wife of a dead president in the 60s, and the few that do will not rush out opening day like this is the finale to Harry Potter. $100m opening day? Fuck off. If people want to see this, it will be for Portman. This may be leggy and get to or above $100m but it is not going to do big numbers right off the bat. I'll go with an 85m total with a possible $125m depending on if it does well with awards.

Opening day remark trademark sarcasm

This looks like a $30-40m (total) performer to me, and that's with Portman being named front runner for best actress. Based on the aftermath of a depressing event and it has already been filmed, although for TV.

Yeah $50m or so. Perhaps a little more if Natalie wins best actress.

Jackie Yuge sounds like a gangster movie.

Natty as a Gangsta Kennedy? Now that's something I'd see opening day.

This could honestly have a similar trajectory to Black Swan if things pan out well.

LOL @ Excel's insanely over the top chatter as usual, though. This is opening in NY/LA opening day, so...

Although it's opening a couple months later, I think this can follow a trajectory similar to The Queen, finishing with $55-65 million total and a potential Best Actress win (although I'm beginning to feel an Emma Stone win more and more). Considering that this is apparently more of a psychological drama than a traditional biopic, that would be mighty impressive.

From the reviews and the trailer I get the vibe its direction is artistic, which could make it less of a mass appealing film

It will definitely do well. 50 Million is the floor. I can see 100 Million.

I really dug the second trailer for this and if it gets a considerable amount of Oscar buzz than I could definitely see a Black Swan type run for it, although there is going to be a lot of competition in December.

I've been saying this will be bigger than expected. Would not be shocked at a 70m+ total, especially if she wins Best Actress.

Capote-adjusted ($38m) should be the floor, while The Queen-adjusted ($72M) is likely the high end. Will go with a $55m total.

Jackie fucking Kennedy is 100x more popular than the damn Queen. Factor in depressed Dems?

This will be the biggest period biopic since LINCOLN if they sell it right.

Why would they want to further their depression by seeing a depressing character study?

Price, you have the single most obnoxious signature I've seen in 12+ years on this forum. Congrats!

You should have seen some that I did decide not to use.

Just remember it when voting for the WOKJ members 2017 awards. For your consideration in all the negative categories.

The trailer is really really good. Gives me chills. Absolute perfect choice of music.

Really if any biopic were to outdo Lincoln, it would be this one. But that record should stand for awhile. But this should do minimum 50 million. I see 80 million.

I just saw this and there is no way in hell this movie makes 100 Million, I'd be shocked with 30 Million to be honest. It's not mainstream at all and very, very slow paced.

This. Though it will make $30 million thanks to the buzz, it is as far removed from a mainstream "biopic" as it gets.

Im not sure it'll make it there with so much more appealing Oscar titles out there.
