Hire newcomers, Vlast and Holmes and Watson, got off to a decent start, but they couldn't compete with Aquaman and Mary Poppins.The movie comic about the king of the seven seas added $ 51.6 million to its asset, showing the smallest drop in viewership in the second week when comparing all films in the DC cinematic universe - only 23.5%. James Wan's blockbuster grossed $ 188.8 million in the United States, and so far, according to this indicator, it is the worst among Warner Bros. superheroes. recent years. But in other countries, Aquaman earned $ 560 million, and with a total of $ 748.8 million, it has already overtaken the Justice League ($ 657.9 million) and Suicide Squad ($ 746.8 million).

With a total of $ 173.3 million raised worldwide, the new "Mary Poppins" ranks sixth among December musicals so far, but analysts believe Marshall's film will still show itself.  The third place is still occupied by the blockbuster "Bumblebee", which has mastered an additional $ 20.5 million.
