to remember

Bad weekend at the US box office! The film’s Marvel underachievement is indeed there, as it only sits in third place this week, grossing only $10 million (proof of some superhero fatigue?).

Marvels Crashes: It loses 77% of its revenue from last weekend. “After Marvel’s worst start, it’s also the worst drop ever for an MCU film, leading to predictions that its career total will fall short of the one-weekend figure posted by Captain Marvel ($153.4 million in 2019 ).“, indicate Our colleagues at Boxoffice Pro. But they are qualified a bit by contextualizing them with world figures: “LThe drop is a little less steep internationally, with The Marvels falling 67% for a total of $96.3 million. The top markets are China ($14.7 million), Great Britain ($7.2 million), Indonesia ($5.2 million), South Korea ($4.8 million), followed by France and Mexico ($4.8 million each).

‘Superhero fatigue exists’: Marvels will be able to stand out, promises its director

This weekend shows that big franchises are no longer synonymous with success: The Hunger Games’ rocky start in its prequel version. The Hunger Games: The Ballad of the Snake and the Bird Earning “only” $44 million, which is a far cry from all previous installments in the franchise. It’s the worst launch for a film in the franchise in the United States.

And finally, let’s mention the animated franchise Trolls 3, which has a less strong start than expected, given the success of the previous installments. Moderate success, but which can last over time, as was the case in France with this film or Élémentaire, whose success was maintained from week to week. With the holiday season in mind, first Thanksgiving on November 23rd, then the holidays at the end of the year.
