It's still a good start for the franchise, which should have a long life. "Mamma Mia", not so much.
With $ 61.5 million, "Mission: Impossible – Fallout" easily took first place this weekend. The sixth entry in the series "Mission: Impossible" has reached a level compatible with the efforts of the past; adjusted to the ticket price of 2018, it ranks fifth among the five titles originally published, slightly below "Rogue Nation" ("Ghost Protocol" had an initial IMAX release only)
This is a repeat of success "Oceans 8" A few weeks ago, when the first unadjusted openings preceded it by the previous films "Oceans". It was a distraction to the real story of a feminine restart that works well. Likewise, the opening number here does not need the claim of the best in the series to be called a hit.
Regardless of his relative positioning among the "Mission" films (or his lead Tom Cruise – adjusted # 7 among his films during his long career), this is a reasonable start. And his initial international result of $ 92 million (with most of the rest of the world to open) suggests that it could be a $ 600 million global artist + equal to "Rogue Nation."
"Mission: Impossible – Fallout"
This is vital for Paramount, which has supported the production of $ 178 million, by far the largest in its limited stability. And also for Cruise, which remains vital and a major attraction for these films even if its star fades otherwise (see: "American Made" and "The Mummy").
What remains to be seen is whether – the best magazine in the series, ranking near the top of any studio release this year in terms of critical response – will have the same strong 3.5 multiple as "Rogue Nation . "
That would get to $ 210 million, which is about James Bond series did one last time. "Specter" reported $ 213 million adjusted; Although larger worldwide, "Mission" looks pretty much the same inside yield, with slightly lower budgets and a less iconic reputation. The A Cinemascore is the best in the history of the franchise, suggesting a strong word of mouth.
The second new mass-market release is the animation "Teen Titans Go! At the Movies." This low-budget, animated title, which originated on Cartoon Network, had a routine start of 10.5 million of dollars, with a long life in front of his theatrical play.
Total revenue for the weekend was about $ 155 million, up $ 144 million last year. Prestige and franchise titles accounted for about 84% of the total, down from the record high of 88% last weekend. Since the beginning of the year, sales have increased by just over eight percent, representing a 10 percent drop from the previous month
"Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again "
Universal
The case of the suites took a hit with declines for the first two entries of last week. "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" dropped 57 percent; the original only dropped by 36 percent and kept its declines to less than 40 percent for its first nine weeks on the way to a multiple of more than five times. This time, it seems to be a little less than three times (about $ 100 million). Several large territories remain to be opened, so an additional $ 250 million in the world should put this medium-budget film in profit, but not enough to suggest more "Mamma Mia" in front.
The amazing "The Equalizer 2" by Denzel Washington is badly hurt by "Fallout" dominated by the male audience. Its 61% drop is far more than the 45% of the original 2014, and suggests a crude figure of 90 million. Most of the world has not yet opened, but it will take at least as much revenue abroad to break even.
With a decline of 40%, the two biggest titles on the list are the least titled. "Incredibles 2" pursues its goal at $ 600 million, while "Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom" is just under $ 400 million. Together, they will earn more than $ 1 billion worldwide, with "Jurassic" over $ 200 million. Both proofs, of course, for continued confidence in the franchise and the aftermath.
