Thought he meant globally.. wicked had never been shown as a musical outside of the US, so not a surprise it doesn't do well outside the US

Internationally in box office terms refers to all BO outside US and Canada.

Mufasa current at $214M vs $210M for Wicked.

Is there any relevancy to this though?

Mufasa continuing a remarkable turnaround, making $10.37m on New Year's Day to reach $138m in 10 days of release.

Based on its opening weekend of #s, it was projected to be at $63-$86m right now.
For some reason Sonic 3 hasn't reported its numbers since December 29th

Moana 2 was #2 on the kid friendly holiday with $5.14m, then Nosferatu at $4.96 and Wicked at $4.6m.

Moana is up to $409m and Wicked to $437m. Moana is now #43 all time and Wicked is # 32, passing Toy Story 4 yesterday.
Wicked is third in all-time musicals, behind Beauty and Beast ($504m) and Frozen II ($477m)

Bob Dylan doing really well at $3.2 m up to $31m.

Kraven ... $475,000. Yup.

Mufasa wins the weekend with $23.826m and has closed a lead that was once $35m down to $19m as it tries to run down Sonic 3. Sonic is at $187.5, Mufasa at $168.6

Nosferatu made $13.2 m, followed by Moana 2 at $12.4m and Wicked at $10.2m.

Wicked cracks the top 30 all-time at #29 with $450m. It will pass Wakanda Forever next and should knock off Age of Ultron by the end of this week.

Moana 2 at $425m domestic and up to $960m global. It's 35th domestic, and will shortly become the 55th movies to make $1 bn worldwide. Only 11 animated movies have done so previously.

Mufasa vs. Sonic 3 continues to fascinate.

Based on its opening weekend, Mufasa was projected to be between $74-$107m right now. Instead it's at $174m. It's literally like everyone went to see Sonic 3 the opening weekend, and that was it, and then they all went to see Mufasa since.

Mufasa was at $35.4m after its opening week.
Sonic 3 was $60.1m after its opening week.

That's a lead of almost $25m. That lead is now down to $18m, and dwindling more every day.
Both movies are on their way to the Top 10 of 2024 since they opened then.

That will kncock out Kung Fu Panda 4 and Godzlla vs Kong: Fast Kong out of the top 10 for the year.

When those 2, Wicked, and Moana 2 all wrap up, we'll have to see how this year's top 10 did vs previous Post Covid years.

Both of my elementary age sons had multiple friends asking them to go see it this weekend. My kids aren't that popular….. this is going to get closer to the Mario movie opening weekend of $146M.

I know Mario opened on a Wednesday and ended up over $200M for the 5 day opening. And I don't think it'll match Mario's legs with the lack of multi generational interest. But it's going to be massive.

Absolutely insane.

Via Matt Belloni, the over/under weekend projection on Thursday was $65M. It now might do ONE HUNDRED AND sixty-five million...

Sinners box office performance this weekend was spectacular. Making $45M and being down only 6% is unheard of! And it did better on Saturday and Sunday this weekend than last weekend. Unreal!!!

Coogler and MBJ have been a phenomenal team for a decade now, but even for them this is new territory. Wow! No one does this with new stories and no IP connections.

They aren't my cup of tea, but after the last two decades, I am down with anything original.

Is there a historical record of this data? Quick website scan didn't appear to have prior weeks or years available. I'd love to waste an hour or two checking out the anticipation levels of past movies.

It's been 5 years of pain. Everything from a global pandemic, streaming wars and historic dual strikes tried to annihilate the theatrical industry. Yet here we are at the start of a 3+ year run that will return to pre-pandemic levels. Congrats to all who believed. You won


Spoiler: false. They wont even make it back to unadjusted inflation pre covid numbers this year.

No one said this year, considering we're already four months in. He's saying NOW (this month) marks the START of a three-year run, wherein we'll eventually get there again. And we absolutely will in 2026 and 2027. I'd bet damn near anything.

Sorry, I'm not sure. If there is, you'd likely have to subscribe here for a potential record/backlog...

I just get these from Matt Belloni's newsletter, which I subscribe to and has a promotional deal with The Quorum.

When does Fight or Flight release? That was the Cinemark secret movie this evening and it was freakin great. We need more Josh Hartnett movies.
