The movie still make much more money than Minions 2, the only difference is talent got more share of reward than usual, which is a good isn't it?

I hope you don't start blaming Mario's not having summer mid-week like I2 when that movie can't hit 600m.

A better weekend holds is only to offset summer weekdays that I2 had. Mario only have 8m lead over I2's entire 2nd weekend but I2 gains over Mario with $7m on this past Thursday alone. Passing I2's is definitely possible but far from locked.

How is passing I2 a locked when Mario can't even beat I2's running total as at 2nd-weekend with Mario had extra two days advantage? It is $348m vs $349m now.

The holdovers are getting destroyed! There are just too many of wide releases out there and they can't ask Mario to make way so all holdovers suffer.

Super Mario Bros grossed $9.4M yesterday at 4,343 locations, -13% from Wednesday’s $10.7M.

JW4 and DnD still retain most of their location but not necessarily the showtimes count. The Super Mario Bros.

I thought Indian movie also getting IMAX screen on the regular basis.

In fact, there isn't any $500m movie in between 2008-2016 when Rogue One hit that range. Those years are the year when a movie pass 500m that would mean they will pass 600m too.

Also the first big screen presence for RDJ in more than 3 years should create some buzz.

Actually Tenet's $306m overseas gross is a very good performance considering many high profile tentpole such as AM3, Black Adam and JW4 struggle to hit that mark.

These two flops always come first to release their BO like many care. That is called spirit I guess. - (8) Shazam! Fury of the Gods Warner Bros. $210,000 -41% -47% 2,203 $95 $56,774,441 25 - (-) 65 Sony Pictures $50,000 -51% -68% 815 $61 $31,596,737 32

-43% from Sunday.,

The trailer look tired and average. Need a phenomenon review and WOM to turn the tide.

Especially kid-friendly get bigger bump than usual. It is a widely known box office trend.

I was saying school holiday.

To be fair, this Monday is also a school holiday.

It is fasting month over there now. Family friendly movies isn't really that friendly now.

But neither DnD or AIR take 2nd place.

Added another $2.5m since last week. DOMESTIC (29.5%) $682,633,858 INTERNATIONAL (70.5%) $1,632,068,651 WORLDWIDE $2,314,702,509

Lower than estimate is kind of unusual right? But Monday should continue to deliver big numbers since many parts of the world is still on Holiday.
