I didn’t realize he still wrote reviews. The film’s Tomatometer Score remains 100% positive, although I did see that Armond White gave the film a negative review.
This a little higher than originally predicted, but not quite up to the heights that seemed possible after Thursday’s $1.8 million in previews.
2017 made gains over the weekend, but The Lego Batman Movie was the number one movie during the midweek and having a kids movie on top hurts the weekday box office numbers.įriday Estimates: Get Out Gets off to a Fast Start with $10.8 millionĪs expected, Get Out earned first place on the Friday box office chart with $10.8 million. Meanwhile, 2017 remains $100 million behind last year’s pace at $1.69 billion to $1.79 billion. It is, however, 9.9% higher than the same weekend last year. Overall, the box office fell 17% from last weekend to $123 million. Both will disappear from theaters A.S.A.P. Neither of the other two wide releases, Collide and Rock Dog, earned a spot in the top ten. Not only did it beat expectations, but it also had better than expected legs over the weekend and that bodes well for its long term success. Get Out beat expectations on the weekend box office chart earning first place with $33.38 million. Weekend Wrap-Up: Get Out has Out of Control Opening with $33.38 million I know the film is called The Final Chapter, but I can see the franchise continuing, focusing almost entirely on the foreign market. If the film hasn’t already broken even, it will do so shortly. At this point, the studio’s share of the worldwide box office is approximately $80 million, or twice as much as it cost to make. The film opened in China over the weekend earning $90.76 million over the weekend and $92.98 million including Thursday previews. Resident Evil: The Final Chapter rocketed to the top of the chart of the international chart with $96.67 million on 24,465 screens in 75 markets for totals of $211.87 million internationally and $238.52 million worldwide. International Box Office: Resident Evil here to Stay with $96.67 million This week it’s The Void, which is great, but only coming out on DVD. Those are usually rare, but we’ve have a streak of them recently.
Meanwhile we have another Puck of the Week, for best Canadian release. Get Out is clearly the best new release on this week’s list, but while it is the Pick of the Week, it is only coming out on Video on Demand and I would wait for the Blu-ray. Fifty Shades Darker is the biggest new DVD / Blu-ray release of the week, but it is far from the best. It’s not a good week for top-notch releases. Otherwise, John Wick: Chapter Two would have become the third Video on Demand release in a row to win Pick of the Week. Thank goodness this film comes out this week. Fortunately there was one other release in competition for Pick of the Week, My Life as a Zucchini on Blu-ray. However, both have previously been named Pick of the Week. It is a great week on the home market with two monster hits coming out: Logan and Get Out. Legendary Pictures, Universal Pictures, Atlas Entertainment
