Are we counting Pool Boys or Carriers as wide release? Are only real wide releases, like 1,000 and up? I'm cool with either.

Carriers is only going to 100 theatres. Pool Boys is not in the game.

Future questions of what is/isn't playable, should be directed towards "(The current month)-(Two months from the current month) Box Office Pricing List".
