Box Office USA: "Dune" Another Victim of Hybrid Distribution

We’ve got bad news for Dune fans who felt a wave of hope after the movie’s grand opening a week ago. The Denis Villeneuve show has become another victim of hybrid distribution. The result for the second weekend was just $15.5 million, down 62% compared to the opening. Thus, “Dune” will be another great Warner Bros. title. His movie earnings will be lower thanks to HBO Max.

The movie is likely to exceed $100 million, but not by much. IMAX cinemas are a big support for “Dune”. Americans left as much as $17 million in these large-area shrines in the 10th Museum. Unfortunately, starting Friday on IMAX screens, the “Eternals” will prevail, which may mean that in the coming weeks, the decline in the “Dunes” will still be significant.

For the rest of the old titles, Halloween weekend turns out to be much better. Drops ranged from 27% for ‘Addams Family 2’ to 48% for ‘Ron Fault’. In the case of Courier French, there was an increase in revenue of more than 100% due to the expansion of distribution to 788 cinemas.

Two big American novelties that were presented specifically for Halloween did not win the sympathy of the American public. Fans did it at the premiere of the Japanese anime “Boku no Hero Academia the Movie 3: World Heroes’ Mission”. The film grossed $6.4 million in its first three days of release. It is the eighth best anime opening in the United States. And now she has a better score than the final completion of the first part of “My Hero Academia the Movie: Futari no Hero” ($5.8 million in 2018).

The Antlers and Last Night in Soho will battle hard for sixth place in the US standings until the last show. Current estimates for each come to less than US$4.2 million. Either way, one can speak of disappointment. In the end, Antlers should be worse, as it has a C+ rating in CinemaScore, which means it wouldn’t be recommended especially to friends. The movie “Last Night in Soho” has a B + rating.
