Three films in release and three films that could be solid performers at the box office. Goosebumps 2 is the sequel no one asked for, so I suspect it won’t come close to the top, possibly not even the top 5. That pits Bad Times at the El Royale, a stylish noir thriller against Damien Chazelle’s La La Land follow up about Neil Armstrong and the U.S. space race to put him on the moon. Early reviews are excellent, though there’s already been manufactured negativity towards the film because of its seeming lack of patriotic symbolry (specifically, the American flag). Ultimately, it will be for naught as the film is likely to do incredibly well in its opening weekend. El Royale may suffer a fate similar to Hotel Artemis as hyper-stylized violent films aren’t exactly hugely popular right now.
