Yes I was just thinking this the other day. I believe the only other ones to pull that off so far are toms cruise and hanks and willem dafoe. harrison ford will best them when Indy 5 comes out with $100mil grossers every decade going back to the 70s and i don't even think there's another actor who's eligible to match that.

 

Edit: Michael Douglas since the 80s as well. 

 

If Dustin Hoffman has one more $100m grosser (Megalopolis? another Kung Fu Panda?) he'll have had them every decade going back to the '60s and The Graduate.

38.5 is good considering people were saying it would struggle to hit 35 mil.  

Biggest problem now IMO is the massive attention Mario will get but could still do a good, leggy run similar to Jumanji.

Mario next week will kill it. I went to the cinema this weekend with my 6yo nephew and when he saw the trailer for Mario he got so exicted

[druv10]

Scream 6 5.3M (-36%)

 

Fantastic hold!

Considering I thought this would struggle to crack $25M, this is most definitely a victory. Albeit a short one.

 

Super Mario Bros. is literally days away from killing everything in its path.

THE SUPER MARIO BROS. MOVIE is basically the last big movie before the summer season begins. The March movies can co-exist with it especially in an almost barren April. Mario will dominate during its opening weekend, but I hope after that the holdovers could rebound.

So TG: Maverick is really the #1 movie of 2022 at the domestic BO. Insane

[DisposedData]

Wow Avatar is getting really close to Ant Man despite having half the screens.

Mario is a family movie. While it's a direct comeptition to D&D, D&D could get spillovers from sold out Mario shows. We'll see. Those things can go either way, hard hit or co-existance thanks to spillovers. 

 

@Maggie 40M could be in play with actuals if the weekedn was under-estimated. Remember that the studio was bullish on 40M.

If wom is great for D&D then it should hold up very nicely now through Easter. It’s the only alternative for families other than Mario

[Valonqar]

Interested to see interntional boxoffice for D&D. Any idea what to expect cause I haven't seen a D&D OS thread?

they are already projecting a 23.7% sunday drop which is very optimistic, 40m would require sub 20 and that isn't happening

Hope that's enough for Paramount to justify a sequel.

[CJohn]

DnD set for a 60% drop against Mario this coming weekend. This needed at least 350M+ WW for Paramount to even think about a sequel. Right now I would say even 300M won't happen. Likely a 275M WW total or something like that. 151M budget. Its a BOMB.
