  • What’s happening with Supergirl?

You won’t believe what’s cooking at the box office for the July 4th holiday! We just heard some big news, and it’s all about those adorable, chaotic yellow creatures.

Yes, the Minions are back! Get ready for a huge dose of mischief with “Minions & Monsters.” This is the seventh movie in the super popular “Despicable Me” world. Wow!

Universal and Illumination are aiming high. Like, really high. They’re hoping to bring in a massive $80 million over the five-day holiday weekend. That’s a lot of popcorn and movie tickets!

It will hit about 4,000 theaters across North America. Imagine all that bright yellow chaos on screen! The Minions always bring such a playful, vibrant aesthetic. It’s definitely going to set a fun, energetic vibe for the celebrations.

Some folks in the movie biz are mixed on if it will hit that exact number. But let’s be real: the Minions are usually a sure bet for fun. Everyone loves those little guys!

But not all the news is bright yellow and banana-shaped. “Supergirl” is facing some tough times. The box office numbers for the superhero flick are expected to drop by a huge 60%. Ouch!

That’s a pretty big dive for a superhero movie. It really seems like the Minions are going to dominate the holiday weekend. We’re crossing our fingers for Supergirl to find her flight again soon!

Our Take

We absolutely love seeing family-friendly movies bring so much joy and laughter. The Minions always deliver on that front, and this movie looks like it’ll be a total blast for everyone. It’s going to be a fun July 4th at the movies!

But it also reminds us that the movie world is full of surprises. Even big names can have a tough week. It keeps things interesting!

Speaking of things that are always interesting, did you hear who might be saving the Sam Altman movie? And for some truly huge personal news, check out the baby announcement from Erin Krakow & Ben Rosenbaum! That’s buzz we love to see.
