Hits and Misses of 2026
No hits yet so far this year, in terms of films released on or after Jan 1.

May not have any money makers until (potentially) SCREAM 7 which is coming in late February.

Crime 101 starring Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo and Halle Berry made 15 M this weekend but it cost 90 M plus to make.

The sci-fi film MERCY starring Chris Pratt which opened in late January is another failure. Hasn't even made back its 60 M budget worldwide. It has grossed less than 25 M domestically.

It's a pretty tall order for Pratt to be convincing as anything other than a dummy.
He should be sticking to roles like Star-Lord and Andy Dwyer from "Parks & Rec".

"Send Help" from Sam Raimi has already made a nice profit before streaming and all that. I saw it and it was pretty good.

I haven't seen a lick of promotion for this film. Apparently it's already been release and this is the first I'm hearing of it. Hard to sell tickets to a film nobody knows about.

There is another sci-fi film coming up in March starring Ryan Gosling called PROJECT HAIL MARY.

I can guarantee that the movie won't be a hit. They need a better title. That doesn't sound like an adventure in space, at all...
