THANKSGIVING EDITIONThis past Thursday was Thanksgiving and like most recent ones, spent it working all day and then afterwards enjoyed some Honeybaked ham. Then right after that, I actually went to the mall for the early Black Friday sales which started at 6PM. I was looking for some DuckTales (WooHoo) items but struck out. Otherwise that was it, nothing to be Happy or thankful for really. Didn't wish anyone a Happy Thanksgiving because of the previous sentence. You know, I really do not like the holidays anymore ...
Weekly Update:Still battling this cold I got and I can't shake it with no matter what I take. More meds and now the cough that won't go away. In the past the cough would gradually leave but this is full force! I should go visit the doctor again to see what is up. I generally can feel it getting lighter over time but this one actually feels like it is getting bigger and stronger! At times I will get coughing fits for like 30 seconds of non-stop coughing. What I hate is if I start to talk and no matter what, just after a few words I can feel the cough rising up and getting ready to explode out! This is not normal and the meds I got the previous week stopped the coughing when I sleep but I can't take it during the day or I will get drowsy!
At the movies:
No surprise as Disney/Pixars's Coco takes the box office crown with a 5-day total of 71.2 million. Just shy of my expectations but solid number nonetheless for this subject matter. On track to make over 200 mil domestic and solid word-of-mouth. Drop down to #2 is "Justice League" with an extra 40.7 mil and creeping up on 200 mil cume. Small drop to #3 is "Wonder" with 22.3 mil and on track to break 100 mil and no doubt an award contender. Drop down to #4 is "Thor: Ragnarok" with 16.8 mil and could reach 300 mil domestic. Rounding off the top 5 is "Daddy's Home 2" with 13.3 mil and may be shy of 100 mil cume.
New films that did not make the top 5:
Just one this week as it expanded, "Roman J. Israel Esq." comes in at #9 with 4.5 mil and right as projected. May just be more for an award run but not a box office one.
