Looking ahead there’s a new contribution to the Harry Potter franchise – David Yates’ Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald – and some very highly-anticipated sequels: Rich Moore and Phil Johnston’s Ralph Breaks The Internet and Steven Caple Jr.’s Creed II.
Really, though, that should be the least of the feature’s concerns when looking at the road ahead.
And that’s not even taking into consideration what’s arriving as its competition in its second weekend (which I’ll get to at the end of this article!)
The positive response from general audiences comes despite a very mixed response from critics – many of whom couldn’t get over the fact that Bohemian Rhapsody basically plays out very similar to pretty much every musical biopic you’ve ever seen.
