  • We’re getting new live-action Lord of the Rings movies because Hollywood must treat every successful property as a neverending franchise in constant rotation.

  • Fallout sets Nielsen ratings records for Amazon as Unfrosted bombs on Netflix.

  • A24’s Civil War tops $100 million, while a comparison between Challengers and The Fall Guy offers a skewed look at what is or isn’t bankable in theaters.

  • The new Quiet Place Day One trailer sells a spin-off with the scale of a sequel.
