A week ago KING RICHARD had the momentum in the battle of the real-life family dramas. Since then, HOUSE OF GUCCI has surged. As we noted earlier, RICHARD has been on a tear over the last two weeks. After months of languishing behind GUCCI in awareness and interest, RICHARD defiantly overtook GUCCI earlier this week. […]
MOONFALL is making its move, but is it enough?
Let’s talk about director Roland Emmerich. He certainly knows how to do spectacle. Whether it’s Will Smith saving us from aliens (INDEPENDENCE DAY), a modern ice age (THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW), or a planet facing multiple catastrophes (2012), Emmerich makes films that look and feel big. Every few years, he gives us a new bombastic […]
TOLDJA – ETERNALS has nearly identical opening to SHANG-CHI

Will 2021 have any $100M debuts? And does it even matter?
VENOM: LET THERE BE CARNAGE got close when it debuted to $90M. But we’re not talking about hand grenades. Close doesn’t cut it. With the year winding down, 2021 could be the first year since 2003 not to have a film open above $100M. This, naturally, leads to two questions: Do any of the remaining […]
VENOM: LET THERE BE CARNAGE is a huge hit, so why isn’t MORBIUS tracking better?
The success of Sony’s VENOM: LET THERE BE CARNAGE cannot be overstated. It is both a financial hit with $400M in grosses against a $110M production budget, as well a symbolic hit, having had a larger opening weekend than its pre-pandemic predecessor. CARNAGE and the first VENOM are the first two films in what Sony […]
New to The Quorum: LIGHTYEAR

THE FRENCH DISPATCH made $1.3M this weekend. Is that good?
While all eyes were on DUNE this weekend, another high-profile film hit theaters. Of course, I’m talking about Wes Anderson’s THE FRENCH DISPATCH. For box office watchers, DISPATCH marks an important milestone. Up until now, we’ve been trying to make sense of how the pandemic-era box office compares to pre-pandemic historicals. With each new release, […]
