Mutant Influenced US Box Office
Now in the USA about 60% of cinemas are open, and therefore distributors cannot count on impressive financial results. And if in other countries "Argument" rules the ball, then in America there was still a week left before the premiere of Christopher Nolan's thriller, which was taken advantage of by the Disney studio, which finally released "New Mutants" on the big screens. As expected, the teenage horror has easily climbed to the top of the financial rankings.The top five US box offices for August 28-30 are as follows: 1. "New Mutants"  Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 7 million Total box office: $ 7 million Sank / Rise: - (-) So far, it is difficult for analysts to make forecasts, since many factors can affect the final fees, but with the "New Mutants" they hit the mark: the tape eventually went over the lower bar of expectations. Despite an active promotional campaign that began on the virtual "Comic-Con", the public was rather skeptical about Josh Boone's creation. Firstly, the audience was confused by the fact that the premiere of the film was postponed many times, and secondly, they were haunted by rumors about a problematic filming process. Negative reviews from critics, who called the "New Mutants" the worst representative of the X-Men universe, also added fuel to the fire, so it will be difficult for the film to recoup its $ 67 million budget. 2. "Furious"  Week at the box office: 3 Added: $ 2.6 million Total box office: $ 8.8 million Sank / Rise: -1 (-35%) The Russell Crowe thriller lagged well behind The New Mutants, but analysts say Furious is hugely popular in car theaters. While the prospects for reaching the coveted $ 30 million mark are still dim. 3. "SpongeBob on the Run"  Week at the box office: 3 Added: $ 604 thousand Total box office: $ 2 million Sank / Rise: -1 (+ 9.8%) Apparently, the animation tape won the hearts of Canadian viewers. In Canada, it actually came out a few weeks ago. The Americans, we recall, will see SpongeBob only next year, and even then on the video. Despite the fact that the number of venues where SpongeBob on the Run is shown has decreased, the cartoon has added almost 10% compared to the previous weekend. 4. "The Story of David Copperfield"  Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 520 thousand. Total fees: $ 520 thousand. Sank / Rise: - (-) Most arthouse cinemas are now closed, so Fox Searchlight has taken the risk of releasing a similar historical drama under the current circumstances. However, David Copperfield performed by Virgo Patel did not hit his face in the dirt. In the future, the film should be helped by accolades from critics: it now holds a 93% freshness rating on the Rotten Tomatoes website. 5. "Words on the bathroom walls"  Week at the box office: 2 Added: $ 453.4 thousand. Total box office: $ 1.1 million Lowered / Up: -2 (+ 4.7%) Unlike SpongeBob on the Run, Thor Freudenthal's teenage melodrama gained in the audience largely due to the increase in the number of cinemas where it was shown. As you can see, the word of mouth, which the creators of the tape hoped for so much, is not yet very productive. The Topic of Article: Mutant Influenced US Box Office. |
