Dude who directed Deadpool 2 is directing Bullet Train. Zazie was great in Deadpool 2 so that piques my interest. I think that shot of her in the first trailer was so quick that I didn't recognize her, especially with the blonde hair. I just watched the "new" trailer and I think it does a much better job of selling the movie.
The cast of of this movie is no joke:
Brad Pitt
Sandra Bullock
Paper Boi
Van
Karen Fukuhara
Michael Shannon
Aaron Taylor-Johnson
Hiroyuki Sanada
Joey King

I'm not seeing it in theaters. It looks like a movie I would watch tho if it were on TV or if I had weeks left on my Netflix subscription AFTER I had watched what I already wanted to.

Yeah I could see how the trailer turns off. The music choice with staying alive makes it seem really corny

My Thoughts
After years of trailers, Bullet Train, finally made its way to theaters. And would you look at that, it debuted at #1, to the tune of $30.1 million. That's right on the money with the projections. It also pulled in another $32.4 mill at the international box office, for a total gross of $62.5 million. Audiences seem to like it, as it has a 7.5 on IMDb so far. Apparently "The Twins," played by Paper Boi and MCU Quicksilver, were the highlights of the movie. Shout out to Brian Tyree Henry. Also, a shout out to Zazie Beetz, who apparently had a great fight scene with Brad Pitt's character. 
DC League of Super-Pets fell by 51.3% this weekend, as it took 2nd place with $11.2 million. It now stands at $45.1 million domestically and $83.4 million worldwide. It's holding strong at a 7.8 on IMDb out of 18,000 ratings.
You better knock that shyt off, Clark. Don't make me call Bruce up with the Kryptonite.
Did Nope make $10+ million like I thought it would? Nope. It's now finished behind Super Pets for consecutive weekends. Nope took 3rd place with another $8.4 million, which was down 54.3% from last weekend. It was also shown in 791 fewer theaters than last week. Nope is seeing a reduction in theaters it's 3rd weekend AFTER it saw an increase last weekend.
It still hasn't been released Internationally yet but it's now grossed $97.9 million; it will join the $100 million club next week.
Coming in 4th was the 4th Thor movie. Love and Thunder grossed another $7.6 million in it's fifth weekend. Its $316 million domestic gross puts it ahead of Thor: Ragnarok's $315 million. Ragnarok grossed $853.9 million worldwide, with a lil bit of help ($112.2 million worth of help) from China and $23.6 mill from Russia. Love and Thunder now stands at $698.8 worldwide without the benefit of China or Russia.
Closing out the top five with another $7.1 million was Minions: Rise of Gru. It now stands at $334.5 million domestically and $905 million worldwide. Rise of Gru will pass the first Minions' domestic total of $336 million next week. This is really impressive when you consider that Rise of Gru has only grossed $2.4 million in Russia. It was not released in China, unlike Despicable Me 3, which grossed $184 million in China and Russia combined.
I guess you are, you little minionfukka.
Notables from Outside the Top 5
Top Gun: Maverick has now moved into 7th place all time at the Domestic Box Office with $662.5 million. It's also grossed the $1.3 billion mark.
Jurassic World Dominion is now up to $960 million worldwide, which means it has passed Doctor Strange 2 to claim the #2 spot at Worldwide Box Office this year. It also just became #50 all time at the Domestic Box Office, moving ahead of The Passion of the Christ.
For @Red Shield and @Lootpack, who mentioned A24's Bodies, Bodies, Bodies last week: in a limited release of only 6 theaters in New York and LA, it grossed an impressive $226,526. That's good for $37,754 per screen. That makes for the second-best "limited screen" average debut this year, after the $50,130 opening weekend theater average posted by A24’s Everything Everywhere All at Once.
See y'all next week. I may start doing projection posts mid week to add to the thread as well to keep the discussion going. Let me know what y'all think.

So close to 100 mill for Nope. But it will definitely hit that by next weekends end. My local theater still has it at 6 show times.. so it will probably be there until the end of august.
Gonna see Bullet Train.. if not tomorrow then definitely sometime this week.
Yeah Bodies goes wide release this friday.
Summer movie season winding down... nothing really major coming out until oct.

Yeah, last week I think I said to you that Nope would finish this week at $103-ish million. I really wanted to say $100 million but I was tryna be a prognosticator. I was wrong
I live near an AMC and Cinemark. The AMC has 7 showings tomorrow and 6 the rest of the week, while the Cinemark has 4 showings per day.
I said I wouldn't see Bullet Train but I think I'ma bite the bullet and see it on Tuesday. Tickets are $6.50 at Cinemark on Tuesday's and that last trailer hooked me, plus the reviews are good
