So far, only two MCU films have opened to less than $60 million: “ant Man” ($57.2 million) and “Hulk is unbelievable” (55.4 million).
It is a disastrous result “Marvels” Is this a result of audience fatigue with comic book production? Deadline not agreed. He makes a different diagnosis. He claims that this is evidence of the failure of the strategy of building a single world of cinematic productions and those dedicated to the live streaming platform. As evidence, he provides data to prove this Two-thirds of viewers who went to the movies to watch Marvels have Disney+. Therefore, the studio failed to mobilize Marvel fans who do not have the Disney+ platform to go to cinemas.

The second big news of the week also didn’t have a successful start. “The Journey to Bethlehem” It received positive reviews from audiences (A- in CinemaScore). The problem is that there are very few viewers. It seems that Christian audiences were not interested in seeing the Christmas story turned into a popular musical. Estimates give it just $2.4 million to open.
This result is worse than the one I achieved “winter solstice”Which expanded its distribution to include 714 cinemas over the weekend. The film grossed $3.2 million, recording the second-best average among titles on the top ten list.
The film’s distribution increased to more than a thousand cinemas “Priscilla”. As a result, A24 is proud Revenues decreased by only 4%.
And the studio may have another hit on the horizon. It started in six cinemas “Dream Scenario” by Nikolasim Kagem. The film averaged a solid (if not amazing) 35.9K. dollar. This year, only six titles had better opening averages (Number one is “Asteroid City” – $142.2 thousand).
Meanwhile, AMC executives can pop open the champagne. Stop showing the concert film in cinemas “Taylor Swift: Tour for the Ages” It paid off. You have just passed the seventh part of “Mission: Impossible”. And Next week should be among the top ten highest-grossing premieres of the year.
There will also be a new Bollywood show somewhere in the top ten list “Tiger 3”. The film premiered on Saturday and so far we only have data from that day. It grossed $1.05 million in US theaters. to update: comScore reported an opening result of $2.3 million
