Remember, Jesus died for Sinners.

That’s right, Sinners dethrones A Minecraft Movie as our box office champ this weekend, although really, the winner is Warner Bros., which has bragging rights for having the number one and two slots over the holiday. After financial duds like Mickey 17, The Alito Knights, and to a lesser extent Companion earlier this year, this is the kind of comeback the studio needed. Well done, professional supervillain CEO David Zaslav. Sometimes your evil pays off.

How did Sinners pull it off? A few months ago, I was ready to write this one off as looking too confusing for mainstream audiences. Just what is this film about? Obviously, the answer is vampires, but it was still hard to tell from the initial trailer (attached to Joker 2, natch!) what the heck they were trying to sell. What WB did was what they couldn’t pull off for Mickey and Companion and got the social media ball rolling. They let influencers sing their (over-the-top) praises by holding advance screenings weeks ago, so my Twitter feed has been filled with “this is a defining horror film for the AGES!” and “it brings REAL cinema back!” tweets for a while now.

But hey, actual reviewers liked Sinners too, although some complained about the film being paced way too slowly for its first 40 minutes or so (why is this nearly two and a half hours long?), but that’s not enough to stop it from having a great “freshness” rating of 98%, which is insane for the genre. Granted, I’m tired of reading comments like “it has powerful themes of generational trauma” and “the real monster of the movie is racism” in regards to horror flicks, as they seem to be the only ones critics feel comfortable giving a pass for a genre they normally are all too happy to loathe, but I digress.

Give WB credit for reading the writing on the wall about Sinners: they recognized it was going to be a bigger crowd pleaser than Mickey 17, and so they swapped the release dates. It’s hard to imagine the latter performing well over Easter weekend (actually, it’s sadly hard to imagine it performing well any weekend), so good on them for being able to get a bit more cash out of something that people wanted to see.

But weep not for Steve, as A Minecraft Movie is still in a very good place, with a second place finish of $41 million compared to Sinners‘ $45 million top spot. So far, the family comedy has stacked up $344 million to date, and it’s far from done. Likewise, The King of Kings saw a drop of only 11% this weekend, which is insane, as the big screen Sunday school class has amassed $45 million against a budget of only $15 million. Granted, the party is probably over with Easter wrapping up, but this is a heavenly win for Angel Studios regardless.

Finally, there’s fucking Sneaks, the fucking talking sneaker movie. God, this movie looks fucking stupid. It’s about a pair of expensive sneaker siblings who get won in a sweepstakes by some kid (or teenager? or young adult? It’s hard to tell with how crappy the animation is), but before he can decide if he wants to treat them as collector’s items or wear them on his feet, they get kidnapped by a greedy sneaker enthusiast and separated. Sneaks might have a stacked cast to shoe off, but I’m sorry, this just looks so fucking stupid.

Like, imagine you’re a sneaker. Your life is someone essentially sticking their foot in your ass. Every day of your life. Now, in addition to this meaning you must have a foot fetish in order to keep your existence from being complete agony, do you realize how short the “lifespan” for a sneaker is? You usually buy a new pair every year. Or more often if you’re athletic. So these talking sneakers are going to die a lot sooner rather than later, which goes to shoe that Pixar should’ve been the ones to make this movie. Anyway, no one saw Sneaks. It couldn’t even break the top ten.
