The DOM run of this movie is embarassing. Luckily WW is still gonna go well above 600M but it is still a large drop from the first one and WOM clearly isn't good. I guess one more is locked to happen but they should just wrap up the story.

A24 definitely would’ve gotten it to much higher numbers than currently-in-shambles Annapurna. I keep forgetting that this one isn’t being released by them. You would think after Moonlight they would’ve given him anything to make whatever he wanted.

This could be the 1st Annapurna Oscar nomination in best picture field.

Just wonder, is this film more accessible to general audience than moonlight?

[AdamKendall]

So are all the trades and box office sites really going to try to spin that 35.4 as some huge achievement? I mean, the movie is supposedly great and will hopefully have good legs, but man ... 'heroic 35 million'. LOL

Mortal Engines is a bomb for the ages. China for the rescue, I guess.

 

Spider-Verse should have strong legs but lets see if Aquaman doesn't affect it more than we expect.

This will probably be the lowest-grossing holiday season since 2014.

Would be a miracle if it wasn't given that the other years had Star Wars.
