Best of this; top 20 that; breakthrough the other. At some point in our ever-comprehensive year-end coverage, especially after a pretty great movie year like this one, we simply get sick and tired of scanning our thesauruses for synonyms for “awesome.” And when that happens, we like to aggregate a list of splat-rated films, bloated follies and our own personal loathe objects, and hate-watch the shit out of them in preparation for this feature, which serves as the Kylo Ren to our Best of 2017’s Jyn Erso, or maybe the poop emoji to the rest of our coverage’s thumbs-up smiley face.

It’s been the worst box office summer in decades in 2017, and appropriately enough, it ends with a whimper. With no new major wide releases hitting cinemas, this was the worst Labor Day weekend at the movies in seventeen years, which led to some strange outcomes.

“The Hitman’s Bodyguard” stayed at the top of the box office with a surprising 0.1% drop in attendance since last weekend, earning $10.2 million.

The long delayed “Tulip Fever” is now playing in cinemas, with the release confirming that the movie does indeed actually exist. Harvey Weinstein expected critics not to be kind to his movie, and offered a half-hearted defense, claiming that many people liked it, including star Alicia Vikander‘s Mom’s friend. However, that friend may be among the select few who will be recorded among those who enjoyed the period drama.

Tomorrow will finally see the release of “Tulip Fever,” The Weinstein Company‘s long delayed movie that’s about boobs or something. The movie has become something of a punching bag, acting a prime example of what happens when Harvey Weinstein has no idea what to do with a film. Well, the super producer must’ve felt the sting from the comments flying around the internet, because he’s penned an op-ed for Deadline defending the film.

While I’ve never been to The Weinstein Company offices, I can only assume that at some point in the last month or so, Harvey Weinstein blazed into a conference, and scrawled on the wall in capital letters SEX SELLS. Long considered a marketing truism, we’ll see how that approach plays out when the long delayed period drama “Tulip Fever” opens this weekend.

After a saucy red band trailer, The Weinstein Company has doubled down on the boobs releasing three NSFW clips from the movie, featuring Alicia Vikander is various states of undress.

“Tulip Fever” has become something of a running joke, much to the misfortune of The Weinstein Company. The distributor has kicked back and delayed the release of the period drama so often that one wonders if the film actually exists. Well, apparently it does, and will finally be opening in cinemas next week. However, TWC seems to be aware that everyone is ready to have the rug pulled out from them, so they’re convincing potential audiences to buy a ticket the only way they know how — with boobs.

After two push backs on its release date and a lack of promotion for “Tulip Fever,” The Weinstein Company has finally presented an “official character teaser poster” for the period drama starring Alicia Vikander, Judi Dench, and Christoph Waltz. The film reportedly had polarizing results in test screenings dating back to 2014.

Harvey Weinstein has been facing a lot of scrutiny ever since Quentin Tarantino‘s “The Hateful Eight” underperformed at the box office last winter. The industry seems to be seeing vultures circling The Weinstein Company, an image that hasn’t been helped by the studio kicking back two movies from summer release: the barely promoted period drama “Tulip Fever,” which will now land in February 2017, and the McDonald’s movie “The Founder,” starring Michael Keaton, which moves from August to a limited bow in December before going wide in January.

Few people in Hollywood are as transparent about their belief or lack of faith in a movie than Harvey Weinstein. He isn’t afraid to make bold statements about the pictures he thinks deserve attention (like promising an Oscar win for Jake Gyllenhaal for “Southpaw” last year), but when a movie doesn’t turn out to be the winner he wanted, he’s more than content to keep punting the release date until everyone forgets the picture even existed.

It seems you can’t go a few weeks without hearing about a movie featuring Alicia Vikander. The actress is having a very busy 2015, with three movies on her slate for 2016, including the blockbuster “Jason Bourne” and the Derek Cianfrance directed “The Light Between Oceans.” But coming before both of those is “Tulip Fever,”  a movie she shot back in 2014 and which features a new experience for Vikander, oddly enough.
