His career sure is getting into ups and downs early...
I doubt it will outgross the original film; Home Sweet Home Alone is going straight to Disney+, do not pass 'GO,' do not collect $200. (I'm not even sure how you compare apples (ticket sales) to oranges (streaming views) in that regard.)
Well, the original has a cult following, something this remake is never going to end up touching.
Calling the original Home Alone 'a cult film' is like calling Walmart a boutique.
I don't know. I don't think it had tons of critical acclaim when it came out and even though I think it made good money at the time I don't think many people expected it to become a Christmas tradition movie.
Exactly. I don't think anybody quite expected it to become such a tradition, and as a Christmas movie, it's fairly well-liked. Come to think of it, there are a lot of Christmas movies that have ended up being traditions that are more or less mediocre in quality, but have cult followings. It's like Clue, which apparently did terribly at the box office but later became a cult following. These movies end up being comforts.
Give. Now. Brooks.
Evidently Fox's reboot/continuation of Fantasy Island did well enough to earn itself not only a second season but a holiday special.
^ I must be on another island as I never realized that was a thing.
And Emilio Estevez isn't returning for season two of The Mighty Ducks because - he refuses to accept the vaccine mandate.
And here I thought he was supposed to be the smart one.
It's a show and not an altogether terrible one either. I mean it's just Lauren Graham doing Lauren Graham things but with hockey, but that's not a bad thing, really.
It's possible he's vaccinated but trying to use the protocols to get more say and Disney called his bluff.
Sucks for him. He'll only lose out on more opportunities. Thumbing your nose at a job when jobs are currently hard to come by due to a pandemic is probably not the smartest thing to do.
He can always star in a tv show with Ice Cube, Gina Carano and Letitia Wright. A reboot of Bosom Buddies as 2 guys have to dress up and pretend to be women in a female only apartment complex and the only one not following a Vax mandate. First tv show to come from The Daily Wire which is trying to get into movies and shows.
Mighty Schmucks.
Maybe he'll end up on a celebrity version of Big Brother.
