The overseas total has increased as well.

I think Mario's 600m is now a done deal statistically. Never a movie got >50m in 3rd weekend failed to reach 600m.

for formality

increased as well

I still think this is a "win" for this movie given how non-existent the buzz was and how stiff the competition was. 5 years ago this would be seen as a major flop, but it still managed to out-open "action dramas" like Thank You For Your Service and Only the Brave (which I still contend is one of the most underrated movies of the last 10 years).

No one actually did.

Hey hey hey, I threw around “highest grossing animated film of all time” a few times pre release as at least a possibility.

Yep, this movie is so TGM with the way it just blazes past estimates every time. Amazing legs for its whole run are a virtual lock at this point.

Really wanting $46m for Mario next weekend and 2nd all time 4th weekend. I do think the hold is gonna be crazy good next weekend, so there’s a chance. Will still be tough though.

lmao It's even closer. 🤣🤣🤣

Mario getting 4 weeks of zero competation is insane, and an important key to its breakout. No animated film is going to get that any time soon.

[kayumanggi]

This one increased as well.

I agree, if not only for that reported 55M budget.

This is a great time to release them. Last big movie of the Mar/Apr time frame. Let us see what happens next year. Would Disney try to grab that frame or would Universal would keep putting out big movies every spring.
