Secrets of The Sire show

Summary: On the latest Secrets of the Sire #Podcast: We break down the aftermath of Suicide Squad’s record breaking opening. How can a movie that took in $135M still end up a flop? We discuss!<br> PLUS: We welcomed Bubba The Redneck Werewolf creator Mitch Hyman on the show to talk about his movie, the indie comic that inspired it and his 20 years in the business!<br> <br> Check out an excerpt from the podcast:<br> On The dropoff from Friday to Saturday faced by Suicide Squad and how the reviews of the film played into it:<br> “The reviews are usually a barometer of a big drop next weekend. I don’t know that it’ll be as bad as Batman v Superman (which tumbled 69% after opening with $166 million in March) but it’s still not quite on par with what Marvel is doing. All their films received really high marks across the board.”<br> As always you can listen above or download us on <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/secrets-of-the-sire/id1078480313" target="_blank">iTunes</a> and now <a href="https://play.google.com/music/listen#/ps/Itdqovg75n7cpq3dwhuol6doc34" target="_blank">Google Play</a> as well!
