The Color Purple musical's "second-biggest Christmas Day box office ever" thing (which I've seen reported all over) really confused me, so I did a little deeper digging to find the actual qualifiers: it's the second-largest non-inflation-adjusted Christmas Day OPENING, behind Sherlock Holmes in 2009.
Adjusted for inflation, it falls behind Les Mis (2012), Unbroken and Into The Woods (2014), and Daddy's Home (2015) as well; it's also worth doubly-noting that this is only for movies that were actually released *on* Dec 25, so it's exclusive of all of the Lords of the Ring and Star Wars blockbusters that came out a week earlier but whose 12/25 box office are orders of magnitude larger.
Re: Land of Bad, they really missed an opportunity to highlight they got 2 of the 3 Hemsworths.
Also, did they cgi arm hair on Liam? I've never noticed his arms being that hairy before. As a hairy armed man I notice this kind of thing. Representation is important, but I resent when it's artificial. Feels like real arm hair erasure.
Pretty bland set of posters. Argyle looks too smarmy for its own good. Strong community theater folk "wacky" creativity vibes but with a budget. Garfield looks like one of those AI series where each image is slightly more of whatever than the next.
"Holy hell, Kristen Stewart has sideboob and ripped tris? We should probably check on our lesbian friends to make sure they’re okay."
As a straight man I feel uniquely qualified to answer this query. We're good with it.

When you said sad George Clooney movie I thought Solaris. Man's made a few of them, I guess!
I liked that one too! I'm sick!

Fun fact: when Vince played rugby on the east coast of Australia (the "finding himself" years), opposition clubs nicknamed him Sydney's Weenie.
Cannot wait for Irreversible: The Musical
“I keep trying to make this column less about toilet humor”
Then youre not gonna like what i have to say about the name “Ricky Whittle” on that Land of Bad poster
Re: The Kitchen - kinda glad this one's going straight to Netflix, because those accents are THICK.
