Mrs. Beast’s picks for the weekend of October 18 – 20, 2013:
1. Carrie
2. Gravity
3. Escape Plan
4. Fifth Estate
5. Captain Phillips

1.) Gravity – this movie is going to have to fall-to-earth pretty far for Carrie to beat it.
2.) Carrie – only horror movie before Halloween, but Gravity is in orbit above all the competition right now.
3.) Captain Phillips
4.) Escape Plan – Sylvester and Arnold, together at last… and no one will want to watch it…
5.) Cloudy 2 – those meatballs are never going to leave…

That’s right, I don’t think Fifth Estate will even chart.

Sooo close to a “ditto CougRon”–

1) Gravity- if that that low % drop last week is repeated this week there’s no way Carrie can catch it.
2) Carrie- while I do think Captain Phillips has staying power, Carrie would have to totally tank to get below it.
3) Captain Phillips- or I supposed this could have a Gravity-like low % drop.
4) Cloudy 2- Yes, I think Escape Plan will really tank. Like all the other movies the leads have been in lately that didn’t also have Statham.
5) Escape Plan- wouldn’t even pick it, but it’d have to go sooo low that Fifth Estate would be here (despite its relatively tiny screen count.)

Arthouse Pick: 12 Years a Slave , had a good RS review
