" ... If The New Mutants does open in theaters and earns even $612,000 in its Fri-Sun opening weekend, it’ll top The Empire Strikes Back ($611k from two weeks ago) as this summer’s biggest opening weekend. If The New Mutants, starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Maise Williams, Charlie Heaton, Henry Zaga, Blu Hunt, Alice Braga, can gross at least $1.74 million over its domestic theatrical run, it’ll be the biggest grosser of the summer. If it tops $4.5 million (give or take the unofficial domestic gross for Universal’s Trolls: World Tour), it’ll be the biggest grosser since theaters shut down in mid-March. A total above $11 million would put it above anything since Onward which opened with $38 million a week before theaters shut down for the year. ... "
" ... It was just a year ago when folks like me were dissecting the better-than-expected ($73 million over four days) MLK weekend debut of Bad Boys For Life. That Will Smith/Martin Lawrence action sequel would end up being the year’s only $200 million-plus domestic grosser as well as the only Hollywood film to pass $400 million worldwide. It is still highly unknown when domestic theaters will get their next $200 million-plus grosser. The then-disappointing $58 million gross of Chris Nolan’s Tenet (along with its not-half-bad $306 million overseas gross) now looks like a best-case-scenario result for any big movie willing to brave the current waters. ...

" ... Of note, The Jungle Book ($966 million), Batman v Superman ($873) and Deadpool ($782m) made more in worldwide box than any other live-action blockbuster this year aside from Disney's Captain America: Civil War ($1.1 billion) released this summer. And Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ($611m and counting) and Doctor Strange ($637m-and-counting) have already out-grossed every live-action summer movie that wasn’t Civil War or Suicide Squad. And there is an excellent chance that Rogue One is going to end up the first or second-biggest domestic grosser of the year and certainly among the bigger live-action blockbusters of 2016 worldwide. ...

" ... The Grinch remains both Ron Howard and Jim Carrey’s biggest domestic grosser and one of their biggest global hits, behind Bruce Almighty ($463 million) for Carrey and behind The Da Vinci Code ($760 million) Angels & Demons ($485 million), Solo ($394 million) and Apollo 13 ($355 million) for Howard. In terms of unadjusted domestic grosses, it is behind only Jurassic World ($652 million), Iron Man 3 ($409 million), Home Alone ($285 million) and Illumination’s animated The Grinch ($270 million) among explicitly Christmas-y movies. In terms of worldwide grosses, it is behind Jurassic World ($1.671 billion), Iron Man 3 ($1.215 billion), The Grinch ($511.5 million, so still 52% domestic), Home Alone ($477 million), Prometheus ($403 million), Home Alone 2 ($365 million), Shazam! ($363 million) and Catch Me if You Can ($353 million). You can debate which of those are “true” Christmas movies. ... "
" ... Well, quite. His Nobel lecture was called The Pretence of Knowledge. And the essential point was that it is simply not possible to gather the information needed to be able to plan an economy. No, not difficult, simply impossible. We must therefore rely upon the market and the price system to do that for us. Sure, we can make useful interventions. We can tax richer people to provide welfare for poorer people, no problems with that (as even Hayek pointed out we can and even should). We can correct some of the grosser problems that markets have like public goods and externalities (neither of which markets deal well with if at all). But we do still have to use markets and prices as our allocative methods as they're the only things which contain the information necessary to make said allocations. Even Kantorovich, the only Soviet to gain the Nobel, insisted that we really do have to at least start from market prices. ... "
