The Marvels performance is way more to do with people feeling polarised about seeing it due to the shows than anything else. 
 

Otherwise, November’s box office hasn’t been anything unusual, other than a lack of major product for other reasons. 
 

I think your post is way too dramatic. Sure there’s more competition for eyeballs, but that’s nothing new. People have regularly shown they won’t pay $20 for PVOD for one movie in any significant numbers whatsoever. 

Somebody being too dramatic on this forum.  No way. Get out of here with that!

Was hoping for 50m for HG but holidays should allow it to pass 110m.

Doubt they'll make another Hunger Games movie; this one will probably not even make half of Mocking Jay Part 2...

Does that Trolls Friday include the EA shows last Saturday? Because if so - and I would guess that it does - $30M isn’t happening 

Nope. 10.54m then including EA.

Third place belongs to Disney’s The Marvels with a second Friday of $2.8M (ouch, -87%) and second weekend forecast of $9.7M, -79% –the biggest second weekend drop ever for an MCU title, and a running total of $64.5M by EOD Sunday.

 

 

OMG below 10m weekend.

I just finished watching this new HG and the movie is fantastic! Easily my best viewing experience since MI7. A bit surprised by the B+ cinemascore. Really thought this is a A movie.

Well unless Suzanne Collins rights another book, that was not going to happen anyway. From what I have read it is part of her deal that they will not make another movie without her writing a book to have it based on or her permission.

I think this is gonna surprise. The rating on Imdb increased. It seems to be a movie the audience loves more than the critics

[Zakiyyah6]

Meh numbers for The Hunger Games but not surprising with it being a prequel and having lackluster reviews. Prequels usually don't do great. The only way this film would have opened big (70M) is if it would have started a buzzy actress like Florence Pugh or Zendaya and got an 85% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Excellent start for Saltburn, think that's a minor breakout in waiting. Happy that the specialty market is making a recovery away from the "how the mighty have fallen" franchise drops.

Not just the biggest second weekend drop for an MCU movie, biggest second weekend drop for a superhero movie. The current record holder is Steel (1997) with a 78% drop.

SAT looks like will drop. Could be sub $40M if SUN drop is bad.

Kang was also killed by unforeseen multiversal circumstances, the Eternals were abandoned on a distant moon by that huge celestial dude, and the Young Avengers were all sent to detention.
