Would have been better before The Whale's expansion numbers came out but will probably happen.

Also just learned Babylon is 3 hrs and 9 minutes. Like they needed another reason for it to be a tough sell for moviegoers...

Babylon hasn't faced this type of headwinds since 539 B.C. when Cyrus the Great conquered it. :sweat:

While I think Babylon will be a flop, I just don't see The Whale having enough of an audience to make much either. Its only pull is Brendan Fraser's performance. So I'm out.

What's the bigger flop, Amsterdam or Babylon?

Babylon will probably eke out a 30m total with this opening so Amsterdam is worse

I'm sure hoping we get a huge turnaround at the box office in the coming days.

The bar is so low at this point that the box office can only improve from here. The Spidy comparisons are going to be BRUTAL.

The Whale is holding well and still not in wide release, and will get a boost from Oscar noms, so this is still possible.

Post Re: The Whale 2X Babylon Club
The Whale just got a Producers Guild nomination over Babylon, so it's looking more and more likely that The Whale will even get a better Oscar bump than Babylon will. Not sure if it's enough for 2x, but if Fraser becomes a threat in Best Actor...
