A lot of movies of much higher artistic quality playing now would love to see that number. The ostensible 2026 Best Picture, \u201cOne Battle After Another,\u201d in theaters for 73 days, has made just $70 million for example. <\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the fast starting hit \u201cWicked For Good\u201d could not cross the $300 million finish line this weekend. The \u201cWicked\u201d sequel is huddled at the five yard line, or $296.9 million, after slugging it out all week. Touchdown may come Monday or Tuesday, much to the relief of everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Also: revival of \u201cKill Bill\u201d with missing scenes, etc made $3.8 million for Lionsgate. Enthusiasm for the combined parts 1 and 2 was dampened by director Quentin Tarantino\u2019s uncalled for take down of the very fine actor, Paul Dano, on a podcast. We\u2019re all still waiting for his apology, which is already a day late and a dollar short.<\/p>\n<p>One thing we did learn: one hour with Quentin is as long as five nights at Freddie\u2019s!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"td-fix-index\">\n<h4>Donate to Showbiz411.com<\/h4>\n<p>Showbiz411 is now in its 13th year of providing breaking and exclusive entertainment news.
