John Malkovich Heads to Israel for ‘The Music Critic’ as ‘Wild Horse Nine’ Puts Him in the Oscar Race: “Closeness and Solidarity”

John Malkovich is set to star in a production of “The Music Critic” in Israel next year, just 24 hours after entering the best actor race for his “Wild Horse Nine” performance. I gather he won’t be getting Mark Ruffalo’s vote.

‘Primetime’: Robert Pattinson Delivers in Entertaining, Visually Striking, Surface-Level Movie — Reviews Are Good, Not Great

‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ Made $50 Million in Thursday Previews Alone

December 17, 2021 Jordan Ruimy

Sony's “Spider-Man: No Way Home” netted $50M in previews last night, that makes it the 3rd highest Thursday of all-time. This ranks it right behind 2019’s “Avengers: Endgame” ($60M) and 2015’s “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” ($57M).

Sources are telling me that a $100M opening day will happen for ‘No Way Home,’ and that by Sunday, it will easily become the highest grossing movie of the year, besting “Black Widow” by quite a few million dollars.

Who says people are scared of Omicron?

I skipped the press screening for “Spider-Man: No Way Home” on Monday, but will now drag my ass to see it sometime on the weekend. The reviews have been good-but-not-great and yet its CinemaScore is set to be an A, its IMDB rating is currently at an astounding 9.2 and even the MCU Grinch himself, Jeffrey Wells, loved it.
