Thanksgiving is just around the corner, just four day away in fact! No plans but to work that day since its just another day at the office for me. Well, at home but still working. No invites to go any where so home it is and last year was the same thing. I ended up getting a McRib from McDonald's which could be a new tradition maybe? Hopefully the McDonald's near me has them because I heard not all of them will be carrying them this year. Don't know and I am not sure why its seasonal. I mean nothing about it screams winter season or holiday about it. If anything it would feel more Summer time with the BBQ sauce. But we shall see, got one last year and maybe I will try and get one this year for Turkey Day!
Weekly Update:It finally has been getting cold! I mean the nights in the 50's? I may just have to break out the heater or better yet, use the house heater! That one though tends to smell like gas or at least at first. But it does make the house a little toasty compared to just one room. But the grass is slowly growing again out back, its had its issues with dogs and the overall heatwave and dryness we have been going through. The problem is the gardeners haven't been mowing what grass is there so the very tall parts are making it hard to determine where I need to put more seed down. I understand he wants to let the current blades grow but at the same time, I need to know where to focus on. But hopefully by the end of the year, it will look close to normal again!
At the movies:
A new #1 at the box office and to be expected. Taking the crown is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them earning a solid 75 mil and right at expectations! Solid word-of-mouth and should carry it north of 200 mil. Holding at #2 is "Doctor Strange" with another 17.7 mil as it closes in at the 200 mil cume mark. Could have it by end of next weekend. Holding in at #3 is "Trolls" earning an extra 17.5 mil and just passing the 100 mil cume. Hanging on to #4 is "Arrival" with another 11.8 mil in its 2nd weekend. Rounding off the top 5 is "Almost Christmas" with 7 mil and its almost done too.
New movies that did not make the top 5:
Two this week and both not really surprising. Up first is The Edge of Seventeen earning 4.8 mil and in at #7. This film did not seem or feel like a wide release and maybe should have kept it to small markets first with a platform release. New at #8 is Bleed for This with only 3.3 mil and actually way below expectations. Again possibly would have done better in small markets than the wide release platform.
