  • Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire makes (a little) more than estimated at the weekend box office

    As predicted, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire has easily won the domestic box office this weekend, but it made slightly more money than even Sony’s early predictions: It debuted to $45 million in the U.S., which is a nice big number compared to everything else on the charts, but is not so nice or big when compared to the debut of its predecessor, Ghostbusters: Afterlife. That one debuted to $44 million in November of 2021, which was still when we were taking COVID-19 seriously, so Frozen Empire is...

  • Behind the US/Worldwide Weekend Box Office – 3.24.2024

      OPENINGS: GHOSTBUSTERS: FROZEN EMPIRE (Columbia/Sony) played as a family movie, with a Saturday afternoon bump, and that enabled it to match projections at $45.2M, slightly higher than the $44M start for 2021’s Ghostbusters: Afterlife. However, Frozen Empire cost $25M more than Afterlife, so a 3% increase at the box office may not cover the […]

  • Behind the US/Worldwide Weekend Box Office – 3.17.2024

      OPENINGS: ARTHUR THE KING (Lionsgate) was clearly hoping to emulate the sleeper success of 2022’s Dog, which ran a $14.9M opening into $61.8M in the US. However, the Mark Wahlberg vehicle came up very short with a $7.5M start. Production/marketing costs are reportedly $60M, which will make for a tough road to profit. Arthur […]

    FRIDAY PM: As of right now, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is looking all right with a $16M Friday and $42M-$43M opening at 4,345 theaters. That Friday is on par with Ghostbusters: Afterlife‘s first day (plus previews) of $16.6M, and should that 3-day keep up, it will only be a $1M shy of the 2021 Jason Reitman […]

  • Korea Box Office: ‘Exhuma’ Dominates for Fourth Weekend, Hits $67 Million

    The South Korean box office had a familiar look. Dark drama, “Exhuma” dominated the chart with a more than 50% market share for the fourth weekend in a row.

  • 'Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire' collects a cool $45.2 million at weekend box office

    "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire" easily froze out the competition at the box office this weekend, topping the charts with a solid if unspectacular $45.2 million debut, according to estimates from measurement firm Comscore. Directed by Gil Kenan, the latest installment in Sony's 40-year-old phantasm-fighting franchise came in slightly ahead of its 2021 predecessor, "Ghostbusters: Afterlife." That film, directed by "Frozen Empire" co-writer Jason Reitman, opened to $44 million. But the slight uptick...
