Man, Venom managed to WELL exceed expectations. I thought the negative word of mouth would result in a sizeable hit.

RichC2

Actuals -- A Star is Born corrected up about $1.7m.

Looks like Sony willl finally get to greenlight Sinister 6 now.

RichC2

Due to the partial holiday that is Columbus Day, Venom is now at $90m and A Star is Born at $51m.

RichC2

Early Read:

Venom $29.6m (-63%) $136.7m cume after the weekend
A Star Is Born $27M (-37%) $93M cume after the weekend.
First Man $17.3m $17.3m cume
Goosebumps 2 $16m
Bad Times at El Royale $9.1m

Worth mentioning that A Star is Born was the #1 movie for Thursday, pulling $4.5m to Venom's $4.25m.

TheMovieman

Wondering if First Man is getting hurt by A Star is Born's strong second weekend. IIRC, early projects were something like $25-30M OW.

That's a great hold for A Star is Born. And damn, I thought Venom would drop like a rock but its drop wasn't too bad at all.

TheMovieman

Yeah, I was quite surprised by Venom's second weekend. And it does look like A Star is Born might've hurt First Man. Seems like that movie should've come out in November.

JeremyM

Christopher Robin is creeping it's way up to $100 million, but kind of stalled out last weekend and it's at $98.6 million now. Wonder what tricks Disney will pull to get it there?

skywalker8

Yeah I wonder what’s going to happen. Too cold for drive-in double features.

Hokeyboy

Too crazy for Boys Town.

Too much of a boy for Crazy Town.

Defiant1

Experts are predicting an opening weekend of around $70M for Halloween, which would be phenomenal. Looks like a perfect storm of factors are contributing to this.

Ash Ketchum

I haven't seen any trailers for HALLOWEEN, but I've seen an incredible amount of press devoted to it. Curtis is all over the place. Whoever's directing that publicity campaign seems to know what they're doing. And The New York Times, which didn't even review the first HALLOWEEN, put the review for this one on the front page of its Weekend Arts section today. It was a mixed review, but still...primacy of place.

OldBoy

this was made for $10mil, right? it's going be huge and then the sequels will be crap. oh well. at least we get this, but wish it really was a send-off...

I hope Jamie Lee negotiated a piece of the gate...

RichC2

Allegedly she has the same deal that Ethan Hawke got for Purge and that other blumhouse flick he did: minimal upfront pay but a decent chunk of profits (he made something like $10m when the dust settled. Not bad for a modestly successful flick).

Purge cost $3m and made just under $90m worldwide. JLC just had a very good weekend.

mphtrilogy

Awesome, was quite happy for her...

PhantomStranger

Now that Venom has been a modest hit, expect Sony to go all-in on expanding the Spideyverse movies.

TheMovieman

Astounding PTA for Suspiria. And Halloween, even with a 58% decline, holding well. Another winner from Blumhouse and assures there will be a sequel.

RichC2

Early Reads for this weekend:

1. Bohemian Rhapsody - $48.9m
2. The Nutcracker and the Four Realms - $20M-$23M
3. Nobody's Fool - $14M-$16M
4. A Star Is Born - $9.5m (-32%)
5. Halloween - $9m (-71%)

Big fall for Halloween, but it is tough to sell a movie called Halloween after Halloween. Plus it pulled $5.5m+ on Halloween. Halloween had a less severe second weekend drop as well because of Halloween.
