One of the greatest and most electrifying players in Mountaineer history.

CRITICS JUST KILLED SCARY MOVIE 6 AND NOBODY CARES

The Wayans brought back the OG cast after 13 years and critics buried it in the low 20s on Rotten Tomatoes, calling the humor "stuck in the 2000s".

The audience response: buying tickets faster.

- It opened lower than prediction markets bet on - they expected low-30s, it landed in the low 20s
- Scary Movie 2 scored 13% and still became a cult classic
- It is tracking for a $45-50M opening - the biggest debut in franchise history
- That beats a $200M He-Man blockbuster opening the same weekend at a third of that

A bad Rotten Tomatoes score used to end a movie. Now it's the best marketing money can't buy.

AMC A-Listers deserve first priority access to high demand screenings

[Jeremy @ManaByte]

Bring back the guillotine for scalpers.

[Chip Murphy @ChipMurphy7]

I waited over an hour for the app but I got 70 MM tickets. Worth it

[Variety @Variety]

Demand for #TheOdyssey Imax screenings was so high that AMC's ticketing app briefly paused after tickets went on sale.

Fandango also appeared to struggle, with users reporting long wait times.

Fun Fact: Jalen Brunson has passed Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and tied Luka Doncic in 30-point playoff games.

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

According to ESPN's tracking, the Spurs were 1-of-14 with Brunson as their primary defender in Game 1, including 0-7 in the second half 🔒

Everybody’s first horror movie was Scream or Halloween. Prove me wrong!

Had to put The Beast from Sicario over this

[New York Basketball @NBA_NewYork]

KAT: "I don't know what it was but I just felt a calm and a peace that I don't know, had to be coming from the woman above

"I felt really confident…I felt like a kid. It was just fun out here. This is something as a kid you always dream about…to be in the NBA Finals

"All day…weird feeling. I felt like a kid getting ready to play in my Saturday and Sunday AAU games

"In a way I felt like I was seeing her in the stands

"It was really fun. It was really comforting

"Game 1 of the NBA Finals you're told how the pressure's gonna be…

"I don't know, it felt like a certain presence was here that was very comforting and very loving and I felt like I could have fun out here––in Game 1 of the NBA Finals…"

Shaq: Yes. Rest in peace to your beautiful mother"

Jalen Brunson tonight, 0 foul calls

[Chip Murphy @ChipMurphy7]

I thought Melo got a bad whistle. What Brunson goes through is crazy

[The Strickland @TheStrickland]

And Jalen tweaks his ankle as Kornet steps on it after a lot of contact but no call on a layup
