Back in 2013, Warner Bros. reinvented the month of October. See, the studio was looking for a home for Alfonso Cuarón’s GRAVITY. The film had bounced around the schedule several times until the studio decided on an early October release. An October release? Was this a joke? October is where popcorn flicks like PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, […]
New to The Quorum: VACATION FRIENDS
Today we welcome VACATION FRIENDS to The Quorum. For those of you who wish there was more John Cena and Lil Red Howery in your life, this film is for you. I kid, I kid. Honestly, though, this is the 2nd of three movies for Cena this year. A month ago, he was in F9, […]
New Trailer Alert
Today was an embarrassment of riches. We got three new studio trailers for THE LAST DUEL, MALIGNANT, and JACKASS FOREVER. Today is July 20th, so check back on August 1st for the Trailer Callback to see how the trailers impacted the scores for these films. Until then, you can enjoy these trailers here: THE LAST […]
Have Dwayne Johnson’s workout posts lifted BLACK ADAM?
Just as Dwayne Johnson ramps up the publicity for JUNGLE CRUISE, he has been posting several workout images detailing his prep for Marvel’s BLACK ADAM arriving in July 2022. It looks intense, to say the least. Johnson has been sharing his workout routine for several months. Back in March, Men’s Health profiled Johnson’s workout routine. […]
Will OLD continue M. Night Shyamalan’s hot streak?
Or will OLD usher in another down period for the filmmaker? It’s fair to say that sequels are often referendums on the films that came before. If the last movie was a dud, the follow-up will likely see a decline at the box office. If the previous film was great, the sequel will probably do as […]
Trailer Callback: July 7-8
Encanto enchants. It’s time once again for us to look back at recent trailers to see if they impacted the scores for those films on The Quorum. The three trailers featured here were all released on July 7th or 8th. Just a reminder, we like to wait at least ten days before opining on the […]
New to The Quorum: CYRANO
Today we welcome CYRANO to The Quorum. What’s not like about this one? The film is based on the 2018 musical. It is written by the show’s creator Erika Schmidt with both Peter Dinklage and Haley Bennett reprising their roles. On top of that, it will be directed by Joe Wright who looks to rebound […]
Is Lady Gaga the new Cher?
What do Diana Ross, Jennifer Hudson, Queen Latifah, and Lady Gaga have in common? They are four singers who were nominated for an Academy Award, then never nominated again. At least so far. On top of that, they were all nominated for roles that required singing. On the flip side, you’ve got Cher, Barbra Streisand, […]
Final Numbers: SPACE JAM: A NEW LEGACY
After 25 years of waiting, we finally have the follow-up to the 1996 box office hit SPACE JAM. Of course, the wait was largely due to the fact that we didn’t have a basketball star that matched the talent of Michael Jordan. We now have that with Lebron James. James had a very charismatic acting […]
Can REMINISCENCE break through the late August doldrums?
The end of August truly is sad. Vacations are over, kids go back to school, superheroes have saved the day, and no one goes to the theater. It also doesn’t help that the studios don’t exactly put their A-list material there. The first half of the month does quite well; it’s the second half where […]
