Three openers, with the star studded Coens comedy poised to be the biggest. P&P&Z won't be able to match the opening of the last romzomcom that opened on Super Bowl weekend. (That would be 2013's Warm Bodies.) Blame it on the too-serious trailer. The third opener is The Choice, a Nicholas Sparks adaptation with a severe lack of star power. It looks like a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie. Well, even more so than what a typical Sparks adaptation looks like. The days of The Notebook are long gone.
