Looks like the only good one opening this weekend.

This weekend, Warner Bros in a rare move for its genre product opens Doctor Sleep, Mike Flanagan’s feature adaptation of Stephen King’s 2013 novel and sequel to his 1977 tome The Shining, which is seeing a $25M-$30M start, enough to take the breath out of the James Cameron-produced Terminator sequel and take No. 1 for the frame. With Veterans Day falling on a Monday this year, the overall marketplace gets a bit of a boost.

BOMojo predicting $25m or $27m, can't make up their mind. Genuine imdb reviews are positive.

T2 is still the end for me.

Dr Sleep has the highest Imdb rating (7.6) of the four wide releases. Also has far more votes (13k), but it opened elsewhere last weekend. All four have low metascores.

Strange that "boring" Midway might be tops.

Veterans Day nostalgia.
