Thats a Spider-man 3 sort of drop.

 

This is really bad

 

Different era. when Spider-Man 3 came out films didn't drop 60% in their second weekend. this is a normal typical drop-nothing to panic about. The Incredibles part 2 dropped almost 59% in its second weekend.

I think he meant Pixar franchises, since the original post was referencing only Pixar. 

Also, that list only has 238 million worldwide for Toy Story 4 as it's reference, so it hasn't been updated since opening weekend. Toy Story has likely passed Cars for #1 Pixar now, or will shortly. 

 

EDIT: Also interesting to note from that list that Frozen is already an 11 billion franchise with only 1 theatrical film release so far. Goes to show you that pure box office sales is just a small part of the story when it comes to these franchise films. Also is a good data point when considering those high production costs and actor paychecks. Sure, a film might cost 200-300 million to produce and an extra couple of hundred million to market worldwide. But when your return on investment for one film is 11 billion in revenue, you're doing pretty well....

From Deadline:

4th Update: Finally! Original counterprogramming works at the summer box office with Sony propelling Quentin Tarantino to his best domestic opening ever as Once Upon a Time in Hollywood clocking a $40.3M per the Culver City studio’s numbers this morning. Yesterday rang up $13.36M, -20% from Friday’s $16.85M which included Thursday previews of $5.8M.

 

Some die-hard Tarantino fans have seen this 2 hour and 41 minute film as many as 3x since Thursday. The pic played best on both coasts, overindexing in the West with solid consistent business throughout the past day. Los Angeles we hear crushed it with the pic’s top 6 runs in town. The ArcLight Hollywood chalked up an awesome $394K on Friday and Saturday. Top cities were Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Phoenix, Toronto, San Diego, Seattle, Denver, Austin, Portland, Or and Las Vegas.

 

The Alamo Drafthouse chain reports on this Sunday morning that its 19 locations of Hollywood in 35M and 70MM marked the chain’s highest opening weekend attendance for the film format in the digital era. “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is on track to surpass Dunkirk as the theater chain’s highest grossing title on 35M and 70MM. The latest Alamo Drafthouse location opened in downtown Los Angeles simultaneously with Quentin Tarantino’s love letter to Hollywood and saw sold out theaters for all showtimes.”

I think that people are panicking cause the drop isn't worse.

Lol what, since when are 60% drops normal? Nether aladdin, toy story 4, secret life of pets 2 or beauty and the beast had them. 60%+ second weekend drop from this year: dumbo, godzilla 2019, dark phoenix and mib international, and i dont remember people calling them great runs.

That's a pretty fantastic overseas weekend number. 

With 1.037 billion total already and a combined WW weekend of 33 million, don't see how this misses crossing 1.1 billion at this point and depending on late legs in some international markets it could very well hit 1.15 billion. While Domestic didn't really breakout that far beyond Homecoming, Internationally is a completely different story. I imagine Sony will fast-track the next sequel.

Finally a solo Spidey movie over 1B. It has been a long time coming but I am glad it is going to fly past 1.1B as well. Hopefully next one can do 400M+ DOM.
