    never seen High School Musical 3 before tonight. not sure how to feel about it just yet but my god they are using that 1 + 2 money. without context if i saw the first minute of the movie by itself i would assume it was a sports biopic

    And look, that kid has not won an Oscar or anything. But he has massively overachieved based on what I think expectations were around the High School Musical 3 days. He has worked a lot, and done well, in a lot of different things. I root for him.

    Who will win the constructors' title? The last time Ferrari won the constructors, the #1 box office movie was High School Musical 3, a movie distributed by Walt Disney Studios. The #1 box office movie right now is Moana 2, distributed by Walt Disney Studios. A Disney-like ending for Ferrari?

    The sing-along success is not the start of Netflix wholeheartedly embracing theatres, but a specific win akin to ‘High School Musical 3’ or ‘The Lion King 3-D.’ Plus, WB’s strong summer, Jackie Chan’s comeback and more, as Demon Hunters rule the domestic box office while Demon Slayers rule worldwide
