US/Worldwide Weekend Box Office – 4.11.2021
Posted April 11, 2021 by Mitch Salem
OPENINGS: The only new arrival in wide US release was the woebegone VOYAGERS (Lionsgate), which got a minimal push from its studio and opened at a low $1.4M, fated for $5M or so in the US. The major new international opening was MORTAL KOMBAT (Warners), which brought in $10.7M from 17 territories. It opens […]

Behind the US/Worldwide Weekend Box Office – 10/2/13

OPENINGS: The studio-reported $28.5M weekend for Tim Burton’s MISS PEREGRINE’S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN (TSG/20th) is below the $29.7M opening for Burton’s flop Dark Shadows. Miss Peregrine cost less than Shadows, which will help (reportedly by about $40M), but this is still not much more than a breakeven proposition on a fairly large investment […]

INTERNATIONAL BOX OFFICE through September 23
Posted September 23, 2012 by Mitch Metcalf
Two films had big very large gains overseas the past week: Resident Evil: Retribution (up $53 million to $103 million overseas to date) and Expendables 2 (up $28 million since last week to $186 million overseas to date). The fifth in the Resident Evil series now stands at an estimated $145 million worldwide, with at least another $100 million in upside […]

Behind the US/Worldwide Weekend Box Office – 10.1.2017
Posted October 1, 2017 by Mitch Salem
OPENINGS: We won’t really know the order of the weekend’s closely-bunched Top 3 movies until final numbers are released tomorrow, but since the default position of any studio with a new opening is to claim victory, the fact that AMERICAN MADE (Cross Creek/Universal) is currently in 2nd place with $17M can’t be a good […]

BEHIND THE WEEKEND BOX OFFICE – 7/14/13
Posted July 14, 2013 by Mitch Salem
OPENINGS: Despite the strong weekend, it’s a bit troubling that GROWN UPS 2 (Sony) fell 11% on Saturday (the original Grown Ups rose 2% on its 2d day), suggesting frontloading and less than great word of mouth. That may place the studio’s estimated Sunday drop of 21% and $42.5M weekend total in doubt, but […]

Behind the US/Worldwide Weekend Box Office – 11.26.2017
Posted November 26, 2017 by Mitch Salem
OPENINGS: 3-day weekend totals were largely in line with where they were headed on Friday night. COCO (Pixar/Disney) settled in at $49M ($71.2M since Wednesday). On a 3-day basis, that was almost exactly the same as Tangled‘s $48.8M, suggesting that Coco should land at $200M in the US. That would put it in the […]
