BT underperformed tho.

I wouldn’t say Bullet Train underperformed. 2.7x its budget and over $100m domestic with a 3.4x multiplier.

You love to see it. Admittedly, i got a bit too optimistic about a possible increase this weekend, but still, this is just a -10,4% drop from last weekends true weekend gross (9,3M). And thats with a possible underestimated Sunday!

AMC Update is below Deadline ($5.3M)

27% drop is FANTASTIC for Godzilla. Worried that it would have a fanboy genre typical 2nd weekend drop, but great WOM is kicking in!

In this early December period, most non-family films have an approximate 7-8x Weekend/Weekday baseline ratio. Last week, HG:Boss turned a $1.85M Wed into a $14.17M weekend, or 7.86x, and its Monday number is solid, projecting to a ~$9M/-35% weekend or so

 

That Godzilla topped it isn't weakness for HG, but strength for G-1, the WOM kicking in, which based off that Monday number is on track for a $8M+ second weekend

 

 Maybe I should try my hand a this Derby prediction thing 😁

NEON’s awards qualifying run of Ava DuVernay’s Origin at two theaters in NY and LA rang up a big $117K opening, for the fourth highest per theater of 2023 with $58,5K behind Asteroid City, Beau Is Afraid, and Poor Things, and ahead of A24’s Past Lives’ $58K)

$8M would be tough from $8.34M. But with PLF loss already baked in and not likely to loose much in way of volume, $7M+ would be an optimistic bit achievable goal, and $6M+ more likely than not IMO

Imagine telling the forum back in January that M3GAN would end up easily outgrossing The Marvels domestic.

Spoiler

Kidding ofc, anything over 6M next weekend would be amazing.

Im feeling like the Sunday -1 number is just a tad low. It’s selling very well today.

Japanese fans win the prize of costume plays for being Nolan and his characters in TDK.

 

No way Nolan won't win Oscar while fans win the game.

Or in March, that the top 2 grossing films at that point - AMWQ and JW4 - would only slide to 7th and 8th by end of the year.
And to guess the rest yearly top 10 (when 2 - SoF and ERAS - were releases no one knew existed)

Just watched Mr. Monk's Last Case. If I had a cent for every murder mystery released in December in the 2020s where the murderer is basically an Elon Musk stand-in, I would have 2 cents, which isn't a lot but it's wild it's happened 2 years in a row now.

 

Apart from that, it was a great reunion episode and made me want more Monk adventures. Maybe just a movie a year.
