-Many of the movies came below their estimated weekend gross due to the NFL games on Sunday. “Flight Risk” is no exception; it was projected to make $12 million on its opening weekend. This is also a pretty weak opening number for a $25 million film. I don’t expect it to do well in the box office due to its poor reception from the critics and the audience.
-Another great hold for “Mufasa.” It’s amazing to see the film stay at the top 2 on its weekly AND daily totals so far.
-“One of Them Days” is one of the films where its actuals didn’t come below its estimates. It’s doing pretty well for an R-rated comedy.
-Congratulations on becoming the 2nd highest grossing video game movie of all time, “Sonic 3!”
-I haven’t mentioned this earlier, but “Moana 2”‘s late box office legs have been impressive. Its daily totals fell behind “Wicked” last month, but due to “Wicked” going on PVOD on New Year’s Eve and the lack of competition from other family films, it started to pick up its pace this month. I have a feeling it’ll start to lose its pace since the film will come out on digital tomorrow (Jan. 28th) and will have to deal with “Dog Man” later this week.
-Based on its box office numbers, it looks like people were turned off by “Presence”‘s misleading marketing. The film’s trailers made the viewers think it was a horror film when it really wasn’t. The film’s budget is only $2 million, so I think it should still make a small profit in the end.
-Woof, man! A 70% drop on its 2nd weekend is an absolute disaster! Congratulations on becoming the first box office flop of the year, “Wolf Man.”
