Hello everyone, I'm Little Plum, welcome to this week's North American movie box office charts, which cover October 8-10. This week, the North American film market continued to be bullish, with a total of 3 new films on the list, the most anticipated "007: No Time to Die" topped with a score of 55.22 million US dollars, while the low-budget thriller "Lamb" only earned 1 million at the box office, ranking 8th, and the opera "Boris Godunov" unfortunately bottomed out with a score of only 387,000, while other films fell to varying degrees. For details, please see the following list.
At the top of this week's list is the highly anticipated action blockbuster "007: No Time to Die", which has been screened in 4407 theaters and only earned 55.22 million, which is not sad. The film was delayed for 18 months because of the epidemic, and the film invested up to 250 million US dollars, which is the largest investment film in the history of the series, and the film has generated countless publicity costs in this 18-month waiting period, conservatively estimating that the total investment of the film is 350 million knives, such a large investment allows the producer MGM to pinch two sweats, why not a sweat, because a sweat is not enough to describe khan. The biggest investment, but also Craig's last appearance in 007, but also a word-of-mouth work, the result of this box office is really sorry for so many expectations, you say MGM is not panicked I am not two punctuation marks do not believe. With the investment of the film, the global box office of 1 billion can return the cost, with the current trend, the film in North America can only earn about 160 million, not as good as the big bad film "Fast and Furious 9", and then can only count on the Chinese market, and the film is set in the country on October 29, and the small partners who want to see it can brush several times. The film's current overseas box office is as high as 259 million, of which 007's hometown of the United Kingdom contributed 71.37 million, a proper South Wave, personal estimates that the Chinese market can probably reach 200 million US dollars, so that the world once again looks at our China's strength.
The second place was last week's champion "Venom 2", which earned 31.75 million US dollars in three days over the weekend, down 64.7%, accumulating 141 million, which is a good performance. The film currently grosses 43.9 million overseas.
In third place, "Adams Family 2", earned $10.11 million over three days over the weekend, down 41.6 percent and accumulated 31.23 million. The film currently grosses 5.92 million overseas.
Fourth place was "Shangqi and the Legend of the Ten Commandments", which earned $4.3 million in three days over the weekend, down 29.5% and accumulated 212 million. It currently grossed 189 million at the overseas box office.
Fifth place was "The Sages of Newark," which earned $1.41 million in three days, down 69.5 percent and accumulating 7.37 million. The film currently grosses 2.9 million at the overseas box office.
In sixth place was "Runaway Players," which earned $1.24 million over three days over the weekend, down 45.2 percent and accumulated $119 million. The film currently grosses $207 million overseas.
Seventh place was "To Evan Hansen," which grossed $1.01 million over three weekend days, down 59 percent and accumulated $13.71 million. The film is not currently released overseas.
Eighth place was the A24-released thriller "Lamb 2021," which grossed $1 million over three days over the weekend and performed modestly. Starring The Prometheans' Pig's Foot Laumi Lapes, the film tells the story of a series of bizarre and eerie events triggered by her female pig's foot and a flock of sheep raised by her husband. This piece of box office is not good, not because the theater line is small, but the plot is really not bad, many media have only played a medium rating, plus A24 only gave 583 theaters, so think about it, this 1 million box office is not less, but also what watch ah. The film currently grosses only $1,696 overseas.
The ninth place is "Candy Man 2021", which earned $710,000 in three days, down 44%, accumulating 60.08 million. The film currently grosses 16.22 million overseas.
The tenth place was the opera film "Boris Godunov", which earned 387,000 yuan in three days on the weekend, and performed the same cup. The English title of the film is "Met Opera: Boris Godunov", and I don't know how to translate it, I can only translate it literally. I didn't find any relevant information on IMDB, not even the type of film, is this film so unnamed? For such a movie with nothing, I didn't bother to look it up, and no one watched it anyway. The film is not currently released overseas.
