But before we get there, I need to tell you a bit about what Paddington is. It was the most attentive I’ve seen an audience in a long while.īut why this movie? Why this bear? There are a handful of good reasons for Paddington’s growing, very polite world domination. We all laughed at the right parts and teared up at the right parts and just generally got into the movie’s groove. Paddington 2 is currently the best-reviewed film of all time on Rotten Tomatoes (an admittedly useless stat that will get tanked the second someone decides to add one negative review, as happened with Lady Bird), and though its opening weekend box office was a little soft, it only fell 25 percent in week two, a very good hold, especially for the dark filmgoing days of January.Īnd I, dear reader, can attest to Paddington 2’s power, having gone to an 8 pm screening in Los Angeles, well-attended by kids, parents, and assorted couples having a date night (your brave correspondent included). This is a lot of excitement for a children’s film about a computer-animated bear who is very polite to people.īut Paddington fever extends beyond Twitter. You fuckers really are going to make me see this movie, aren't you?
