“Barbenheimer” rolls along. Both films nabbed great second weekends, with drops of only around 40-43% each.
“Barbie” made $93 million this weekend, A mere 43% drop from the previous weekend, bringing its total to $351 million in just two weeks. That’s the biggest second weekend in Warner Bros’ history. It also passed the $750 million mark worldwide.
“Oppenheimer” nabbed $46 million and has a domestic total of $174 million in two weeks, which is astonishing considering the subject matter and length of this very densely constructed film. It only dropped 43% from its previous weekend.
In third place was Disney’s “Haunted Mansion” debuting at #3 with $24 million. Meanwhile, “Sound of Freedom” kept chugging along with a $14 million take — the domestic total stands at $150 million. In comparison, ‘Mission: Impossible 7’ is at $138 million. Absolutely nobody predicted that ‘Sound’ would end up outgrossing Tom Cruise at the summer box-office.
As expected, Snyder's latest is being torn apart by TIFF attendees. No mercy given. The film, which had its world premiere this evening, is being called by some one of the worst movies to ever premiere at the festival.
