3. YA Novel Adaptations
Two types of adaptations the studio has been struggling with - young adult and novel adaptations in general - converged with Red Queen, which made a profit against all odds. I didn't like the film very much, but it did manage to earn a profit.
2. Aldis Hodge
It was only a matter of time before Aldis Hodge earned himself a big leading role. While the film was not a box office hit, I am joining in all the other critics to give Hodge's performance positive notice.
1. Wonder Bean
While Wonder Bean can be tonally awkward and clunky at times, the film is still strong visually and well-cast. Florence Pugh gave the best live-action voice-only performance since Scarlet Johansson in Her and Jeremy Allen White made you believe everything his character does.
3. N/A
2. Red Queen
While it did manage to make a profit, which was a positive outcome, I could not see anything unique about Red Queen. This is probably the fault of the source material, but it felt like a generic mixture of just about young adult cliche around.
1. Box Office
Once again, this season's box office is off to a small start. Three rounds in and no film has eclipsed $300 million at the worldwide box office.
