    DALLAS --

    Lucky Post has added award-winning editor Marc Stone to its roster. 

    Stone most recently enjoyed a seven-year tenure at 3008. Among his notable credits are: the D Show Award-honored 2015 Jeep Super Bowl spot “Beautiful Land”; the Dodge Super Bowl spot “Wisdom” which earned an 2015 AICE Award; 2012 AICE winners “Tigers vs. Toothpicks” for AVG and “Sync Cities for Metro PCS; and the 2011 Bronze Cannes Lion-winning Gamestop spot “Yay.” Prior to joining 3008, he was at N2O and Post Op Editorial, editing commercials for brands Corona, The Home Depot, Nissan, Farmer’s Insurance, and The Salvation Army.

    “Marc and I worked together years ago when I was on the agency side. He is a true creative partner with his clients, he loves solving the puzzle of each project and finding the honest narrative in each story,” said Lucky Post EP Jessica Berry.

    Stone related, “Lucky Post is committed to pushing the craft. They are focused at every layer, creating a vibrant environment that inspires those who walk through the doors, including me.”

    Earning a degree in Radio-Television-Film at University of Texas/Austin, Stone had the intention of making audio his career. During his apprenticeship in audio, he was drawn to the connection between music and visuals–the moments they bring together–which led to his path as an editor. Stone is known for finding the emotion in each edit, connecting with audiences through a range of work from docu-style to comedic fiction genres.

    “Sonic the Hedgehog 3” Tops Weekend Box Office

    Sunday, December 22, 2024

    In the holiday season battle of big-budget family movies, Paramount Pictures' "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" sped past the Walt Disney Co.'s "Mufasa: The Lion King" to take the top spot at the box office ahead of the lucrative Christmas corridor in theaters.

    "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" debuted with $62 million in ticket sales over the weekend, according to studio estimates. With strong reviews (86% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes) and a high score from audiences (an "A" on CinemaScore), "Sonic 3" is well positioned to be the top choice in cinemas during the busiest moviegoing period of the year.

    It was telling of some wider trends that "Sonic 3" — made for $122 million — bested one of Disney's top properties. Videogame adaptations, once among the most derided movie genres, have emerged as one of the most dependable box office forces in recent years. The two previous "Sonic" movies together grossed more $700 million worldwide and the third installment appears likely to do better than both of them. A fourth "Sonic" movie is already in development.

    "Mufasa," however, was humbled in its opening weekend, with its $35 million in domestic ticket sales coming in notably shy of expectations . The photorealistic "Lion King" prequel even opened wider than "Sonic 3," launching on 4,100 theaters and gobbling up most IMAX screens, compared with 3,761 locations for "Sonic 3."

    Though "Mufasa's" reviews were poor (56% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes), audiences gave it an "A-" CinemaScore.

    "Sonic 3" nearly doubled the haul for "Mufasa," which cost more than $200 million to make. Disney could look to $87.2 million in international sales to help make up the difference. The third "Sonic" will rollout in most overseas markets in the coming weeks.
