With no major family release since Hotel Transylvania, Wreck-It Ralph should be able to take a large bite out of the box office (though numbers may be a bit depressed with the East Coast in the path of a hurricane). Combined with its appeal to video game enthusiasts, Wreck-It Ralph will easily trump the week's other two wide releases.

Individual Commentaries

Wesley Lovell: Apart from its Oscar chances, I have little desire to see Flight. My interest lies in Wreck-It Ralph among this week's entries, though I will probably catch Flight at some point. The indie offerings aren't particularly exciting to me.
Peter J. Patrick: This week's one major release is Robert Zemeckis' Flight, the director's first live actoin film in twelve years which looks to be a showcase for Denzel Washington. The only other film I might be persuaded to see in theaters is This Must Be the Place for its fine ensemble cast led by Sean Penn and Frances McDormand.
Tripp Burton: Flight is the weekend's big release, both commercially and in terms of Oscar hopes...it looks like Oscar season is finally upon us!
