When the new "Spider-Man" and "Toy Story" are shown in theaters, viewers are not ready to spend money on watching smaller and poorly publicized projects. As a result, there is a situation that has developed in the North American box office last weekend: although the newcomers get into the top 5, they are not able to attract a decent part of the audience. The top five North American box office for July 12-14 is as follows: 1. "Spider-Man: Far From Home" Week at the box office: 2 Added: $ 45.3 million Total box office: $ 274.5 million Sank / Rise: - (-51.1%) So far, the blockbuster by Jonathan Watts ranks fifth among all Spider-Man films, if you evaluate their results at the US box office. Less collected were only tapes with Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker and the cartoon "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse." However, the worldwide gross of the sequel, now amounting to $ 847 million, allowed it to climb to third place on the list of Spidey projects. 2. "Toy Story 4" Week at the box office: 4 Added: $ 20.7 million Total box office: $ 346.4 million Sank / Rise: - (-39%) Among Pixar projects, the quadriquel is already the fifth in terms of gross in the USA, and it lacks some ten million for the result of "Puzzle". In home theaters, the fourth part, most likely, will equal the third, but on the world stage the triquel has clearly distinguished itself more. Toy Story 4 will hardly be able to repeat his achievement and overcome the billion-dollar milestone. 3. "Trap" Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 12 million Total box office: $ 12 million Sank / Rise: - (-) The horror of Alexander Azha failed to repeat the success of the blockbuster "Meg: Monster of the Depth". First, the director did not have a star of the caliber of Jason State, and second, Paramount did not spend money on advertising the film. As a result, "Trap" only slightly improved the starting result of the thriller "Blue Abyss" ($ 11.2 million). 4. "Ali, steering wheels!" Week at the box office: 1 Added: $ 8 million Total box office: $ 8 million Sank / Rise: - (-) The comedy with Dave Batista and Kumail Nanjiani was nothing special, like "The Trap". Michael Daus's film began on a par with California Highway Patrol ($ 7.7 million) and slightly worse than Toys for Adults ($ 9.5 million), but comparison with failed projects does not honor "Ali, rudders!" STX recently rescheduled the premiere of My Spy, starring Batista, to next year, and it looks like the decision was timely. 5. "Yesterday" Week at the box office: 3 Added: $ 6.8 million Total box office: $ 48.3 million Sank / Rise: -2 (-32.9%) While the newcomers are suffering from a lack of attention, Danny Boyle's melodrama is reluctant to part with the audience - it lost less than a third of its viewers in a week. Critics may not have been impressed by the picture, but moviegoers were pleased and earned their $ 80 million in the worldwide box office, which is three times more than its production budget.
