US Boxing Office does not wish to return to Overlook
The second November weekend in the North American box office turned out to be unusual: the top five in the financial rating was almost completely updated. The newcomers occupied the first four seats, which, however, did not save the situation in the box office as a whole: November began as a real horror show for Hollywood studios, since all the high-profile premieres of the month have not yet been able to justify their hopes.The top five US box offices for November 8-10 are as follows: 1. Midway  Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 17.5 million Total box office: $ 17.5 million Sank / Rise: - (-) Roland Emmerich's drama approached the weekend with a load of disappointing reviews from critics, but moviegoers turned out to be more supportive of the military epic, and he won the right to be called the leader of the box office from competitors. The film kicked off slightly better than Cavalry ($ 15.8 million) and Out of Conscience ($ 15.2 million), and Lionsgate hopes the film will ultimately recoup its $ 100 million budget, thanks in part to other countries. but for now it sounds like a pipe dream. 2. "Doctor Sleep"  Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 14.1 million Total box office: $ 14.1 million Sank / Rise: - (-) Warner Bros. Studio, on the other hand, no longer hopes for the best. "Doctor Sleep" frankly failed and only half lived up to analysts' forecasts. The same "Pet Sematary" earned $ 24.5 million in the first weekend. Now the leadership of the major is perplexed why the horror with high ratings from both reviewers and viewers has collected such a small amount. Among the main reasons are slurred advertising campaign and too long for a horror movie. Even if Doctor Sleep raises $ 100 million, the studio will suffer losses. 3. "Playing with Fire"  Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 12.8 million Total box office: $ 12.8 million Sank / Rise: - (-) Andy Fickman's comedy not only met, but exceeded the industry's expectations. Paramount had hoped that the film with John Cena in the title role would play no more than $ 10 million in the first weekend, and as a result, "Games with Fire" won the attention of a family audience and could be compared with "Monster Trucks" ($ 11 million). 4. "Christmas for two"  Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 11.6 million Total box office: $ 11.6 million Sank / Rise: - (-) The target audience of “Christmas for Two” was considered the fair sex, and initially analysts believed that romcom would perform at the level of “Simple Request”, which earned $ 16 million at the start and $ 98 million in the end. Judging by the first results, "Christmas for Two" will not climb to such a height and will rather follow the path of the drama "Mountains Between Us" ($ 62.8 million worldwide). 5. "Terminator: Dark Fate"  Week at the box office: 2 Added: $ 10.8 million Total box office: $ 48.5 million Sank / Rise: -4 (-63%) The sequel's box office fell by 63% in a week, and Dark Fates is already significantly behind Genesis, which after ten days of distribution had $ 69 million. If the fifth part was considered a failure, then the sixth title can be awarded now, because fees and reviews clearly indicate that the next "Terminator" was not a very good idea.
