OMG! I'm going too. Just payed my $15 to Australians in Film. I'm making the 1.5 hour drive from Orange County. I'm not familiar with the area. Is there anyway we can meet up Michael?

Thanks Margaret for the heads up. It's like Christmas has been moved up a week. I'm kind of in shock. I actually feel kind of guilty seeing it before you guys.

Wow! I'm so happy for you, Will! I can't wait to hear all about it. We'll all get to live vicariously through you and Michael. One more week....can't believe it's almost here. Look forward to hearing more from you, both. 🙂

No you don't! 🙂
But we expect as much detail as you both can provide.
Here's the link for the Vanity Fair FB Q&A:

Will S -- sent you an email so let me know if you didn't get it.
Has everyone seen this -- ? Says tracking is not great, around $30m for the whole 4 day weekend. 40 is still possible and would be a semi-win .....

40 million is still an improvement over the 20's, which we've seen mentioned/predicted.
And it is a crowded field. But, this weekend looks to be won by Finding Dory, which is a holdover, and not IDR, the new release. And while a few critics did see it earlier, most had to wait until the last 24 hours, and the reviews have been pretty brutal. But it's also sitting at around 46% for audience, with over 55000 votes. That's not good either. It's still predicted to get around 45 to 50, but for this type of movie it's not good. So while LOT may still not be tracking well, I think there's more room for it. And yes, to repeat, it will need good reviews and word of mouth. And now that screenings have started in earnest, we'll know about those very soon
VF has posted the video of the Q&A with Margot and Alex, I didn't get to watch it, so can't tell you whether it was any good or not.
