Funny how both the films expanding wide on the 10th will probably out-open the new wide releases. That's January for you. The best films are usually the the limited releases from December expanding wide.

Are they really remaking Call of the Wild? WHY???

Because, to be honest, no one has really managed to do a good job of filming the Jack London novel.

Of course, whether this succeeds any better is an open question.

Looking ahead,  It is going to interesting to see how the events of the last 48 Hours might impact Top Gun 2. Real wars tend to hurt :Rah Rah war films at the box office. If all hell does break loose in the middle east, the producers have a lot to worry about.

It's been a while since I read the book, but my memory is telling me that it's not a very open question.

Again, part of Skywalker falling behind Last Jedi has a lot to do with Christmas and New Year’s Day falling later in the latter’s run, which boosted grosses greatly. Friday for the J.J. Abrams-directed movie looks like $11.1M, -57%, still at 4,406 theaters.

 

Okay but did they not realize this last weekend...

The Grudge is absolutely atrocious. I still can't beliebe they gathered such a massive amount of talent in front and behind the cameras only to come up with this boring piece of garbage.

Everyone needs a paycheck from time to time.

IT Chapter 1, opened $50m higher, and was released in the worst month for legs and it got a better multiple. Opening huge isn't an excuse for bad multiples, A Quiet Place broke the record for biggest OW for an Original Horror movie and delivered an 3.5x in April, facing stronger competition than US had. 

If you follow box office, you know you can't compare Us to IT and A Quiet Place. Both are the exceptions. They overperformed and surprised everyone. You can't expect every original horror movie with good reviews that opens big to have the same kind of legs. Us was treated like a follow up, so there was a rush factor, hence its big OW was relevant in this case. The legs for Us were good for what it was. It's just that some people's expectations were too high, so when it didn't meet theirs, they called it "bad".
