5 openers, each more forgettable than the last. Only the Brave has very good reviews, but I do wonder how much the current fire in California will help or hurt. Audiences are increasingly looking to escape lately, so that doesn't help. Geostorm and Madea...yeah. They'll do okay, I guess. Geostorm probably cost a shitload, though. The Snowman has genuine talent associated with it, but the movie has awful reviews. And again, Fassbender is box-office poison. Lastly, Same Kind of Different as Me opens after being delayed for over a year. (IMDB says it was supposed to open April 2016.)
