Trailer for What Happens Later just came out, Meg Ryan's romcom return! Getting a theatrical release Oct. 13th.

It's not coming from a major studio but could surprise if it gets a wide enough release and the lack of romcoms.

[Taylor Swift: The Eras Concert Tour - $80 million]

I'll go with an even $100M for Eras if we include it. Taylor loves her records and will find a way to get to triple digits.

Ok I will include Eras but you have a one week extension until next Friday to predict it

So my prediction strategy was so bad since it was a dull fall that Taylor had to jump in. Your welcome everyone. The interest to have real predictions has gone up and feel like that's the universe's way of saying I need to do better predictions for the Swifties.

Will Taylor Swift influence Killers of the Flower Moon and Five Nights At Freddy's? I was tempted to lower my predictions but I guess those two films lean male. Likely the day and date release of Freddy's has more effect on its box office.

Five Nights at Freddy's really could have broken out. No idea why Universal is doing day-and-date with Peacock. I've heard a few different friend's kids talking about being excited for it. My friend and I saw The Blackening with their 10-year-old and they lost their shit when the trailer came on. I'm sure kids would have been begging their parents to take them to this. But since they can just watch it on Peacock they'll likely do that and save the money.

I'm glad The Exorcist moved today. Because if I thought it was still opening against Taylor Swift I would have lowered my prediction a massive amount. Everything opening that weekend, including limited releases, should move.
