That Mexico number is insane...

Yesterday has a great weekend. Estimates kept on climbing up. If it can leg it up to a $70M domestic, it'll be a solid win for Universal.

Far from Home China weekend $97.521mn. 2nd highest ever for a solo Superhero after Venom.

What an insane run Venom had over there that a Spider-Man movie is second to it. Although very different situation, and I don't mean just China here, this makes me pretty optimistic about that Joker movie,

On the other spectrum, UK is pretty crap. Box office there has been depressing, especially legs.

I wouldn't think so. Venom is unique and nothing like Joker. Massive nonstop spectacle helped and whatever is. Venom is like a unicorn.

Didn’t it just have the biggest opening weekend ever here for an animated film?

I mean it opened for half of Toy Story 3 and the total will be less than half. Not sure, which film? SLOP2 is doing awful

Endgame is doing fine. The OS re-expansion is not synchronized.

I meant optimistic that a movie focused on just one villain can break out. Of course I don't expect it will play anything like Venom, definitely not in China, but it should still do okay business if it's actually good (will have to be since I doubt it will be much fun, like Venom, to detract from its mediocrity).

It did not open with half of TS3. The UK opening listed for TS3 is a 7-day OW. TS4 only has 3-day OW.

Ah I see. You make a great about Venom, it is fun. It is mediocre? Well I thought so but I enjoyed the hell out of it on the 2nd view with lower expectations.

Ah ok, that's better I guess. Still getting nowhere near the massive total for TS3.

That's because of the insanely bad ER today.

It didn’t. Toy Story 3’s opening was a 7-day opening. They fudged the mon-thurs into the figure. Plus 4 of its days were when schools were out, which they’re not at the moment.
