If you were making a summer chill vibes playlist with Michael's songs, what would you include? Extra points for his earlier work. 🤪
How many theaters in your city are still showing Michael, and where are you in the world?
In the city of Houston, Texas, there is only one theater still showing Michael today, and it has 3 showings a day, but when I pick any day after today, several more theaters within the city show up.
Do you think there will be a Bad 40th anniversary album?
Which album would you like to have an anniversary album? I'm down for anything but would really love Off the Wall. 🤔
Russia and CIS box office Saturday, June 27. Russia only numbers for Michael to avoid confusion.
| Movie | Daily gross | Week-to-week | Total gross | Days in release |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Michael | $562k | -25% | $21.32 mln | 31 |
| Son of a Rich 3 | $442k | -36% | $9.6 mln | 17 |
| Backrooms | $191k | -42% | $9.34 mln | 24 |
| Three Heroes. Daily Tales 3 | $180k | $467k | 3 | |
| Obsession | $125k | -15% | $5.28 mln | 38 |
| Unpacking | $111k | $330k | 3 | |
| The Get Out | $80k | $190k | 3 | |
| Colony | $73k | $653k | 10 | |
| The Karate Kid | $62k | $161k | 3 | |
| In The Grey | $32k | -54% | $8.23 mln | 38 |
Michael added $562k yesterday with 25% week-to-week drop. The movie is comfortably winning again with around $1.78 mln. The 2nd or 3rd best 5th weekend for foreign releases after Avatar and possibly The Housemaid.
1544.7 mln RUB or $21.32 mln in Russia with 2,837,055 admissions. $21.96 mln including neighboring Belarus. Around $22.5 mln should be reported by the end of the 5th weekend but we all know how bad with numbers are those reports.
1889.1 mln RUB or $25.99 mln with all CIS countries included. №33 on the all-time chart ahead of Minions and The Force Awakens.
Nothing good can be said about a local blockbuster Son of a Rich 3. Hyped experiment with releasing a Russian event film on summer has failed. Backrooms still holding reasonably well. Will surpass $10 mln next week. Another excellent weekend for Obsession. Total will be around $5.4 mln and it is far from over.
An okay $260k opening for The Get Out or Bear Country. Korean zombie thriller Colony opened last week in Russia and on Thursday in CIS countries. That explains a very good hold.
CIS countries box office for Hollywood movies. Saturday, June 27. Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan
| Movie | Daily Gross | Total gross | Drop | Days in release |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Toy Story 5 | $139k | $1.37 mln | -35% | 10 |
| Supergirl | $56k | $140k | 3 | |
| Disclosure Day | $28k | $376k | -59% | 10 |
| Scary Movie | $21k | $768k | -48% | 17 |
Supergirl bombed. Toy Story 5 is already available for watching in russian movie theaters. Unofficial release of course. Not much excitement, the franchise is not very popular in the Russian-speaking world.
I'll be in France soon, and I was wondering if any of his albums have French versions, like a different song included or something? I saw once somebody somewhere mentioned there was an audio message on one of the albums sold in France, but I don't remember which one
For your viewing pleasure. 👀🎶👍🏻
Prince mashes up MJ's Don't Stop TIL You Get Enough with Cool...
And so I listened to it and can not unhear it now. And yes, I know about the later MJ/Eminem controversy. Just found this interesting.
​
I know listening to demos aren't everyone's thing, but for those that do listen, which have you been listening to lately?
​
I'm 7 weeks in. I am currently taking 4 MG because 5 seemed a little scary. Anyway, I had already lost 20 pounds. I mean, I basically felt the meds kick in less than an hour of taking 6 that first week already felt great 3 days in because of the reduced inflammation.
Then I gained 5 pounds. (I do weigh myself every day and know there are ups and downs. ) this was a week ago. By Sunday, my lymph nodes in my neck were feeling puffy, and then my head started to hurt, but I drank tons of water, and on Monday, I felt fine. My neck wasn't tender, but I still had inflammation. I haven't lost even a pound all week, but I can feel the inflammation in my neck, abdomen, legs...
This is only 5 pounds and I don't know how I lived like this before I wake up all groggy, my body aches, I feel like I'm old trying to get out of bed or get up from a chair and walk. I'm actually pretty upset and worried. I was feeling amazing without all that inflammation. And it's not like that was all I had to lose (I still have 90 pounds to lose). I keep drinking water, I haven't been taking in tons of salt.
Anybody else have this happen?
Eta: I thought one of the rules of this sub was No A-holes. Some of you are so stuck on me not going up to 5 mg from 2.5, for whatever reason, it triggered you. So strange. Thanks to the person who wrote to me privately, I think you're probably right, I'm probably still fighting off some virus even though I don't feel anything of the normal symptoms anymore. It doesn't mean it's not there.
Is Don King's and the Jackson family's Victory Tour announcement available on video anywhere? Is it in any documentary? I can't remember if I have seen it or only read about it. Plus, I haven't seen every documentary so I may have missed it. I tried to look for it on youtube but didn't see anything resembling it.
On a variety show in the 70s, Janet did a Mae West impersonation. While her brother Randy did an impression of Groucho Marx.
As stated in Mae Wests biography she was “Recognized as a prominent sex symbol of her time, she was known for portraying sexually confident characters and for her use of double entendres, often delivering her lines in a distinctive contralto voice.”
Why were people ok with a little girl doing this type of impersonation?
If you haven't seen this video yet or read her book, I think you're missing out, and I only saw the video today and started reading her book just a bit ago.
