Phantom Thread slipped to $40,040 in four theaters. This is an amazing omen for its upcoming wide expansion.

The Post remained in first place earning an average of $47,167 in 36 theaters.

None of the new releases reached the $10,000 club, which is not unexpected. Theater Averages: Post Haunts the Theater Average Chart This year, not only will we match that number of $10 million films, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle should top $30 million, while Paddington 2 and The Post should top $20 million. This weekend last year, there were seven films that earned more than $10 million over the long weekend, but only one film, Hidden Figures, earned more than $20 million.

More importantly, it should help the 2018 box office get a sizable win in the year-over-year comparison. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle’s legs will likely remain really long, helping it repeat as box office champion. I’ve seen limited releases with more marketing push than Proud Mary is getting. Worse still, Sony’s treatment of Proud Mary is almost bizarre. The Commuter’s buzz is so quiet that its box office chances have taken a real hit. However, only Paddington 2 and The Post have a real shot at box office success. It is the first long weekend of 2018 and we have four films trying to take advantage of the MLK holiday. Weekend Predictions: Paddington and Post take on Jumanji over MLK Long Weekend Because it is a holdover, it should have better legs over the rest of the weekend, putting it on pace for just over $30 million over the weekend, matching our prediction perfectly. In the end, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle came out on top with $6.13 million, for $262.26 million after 24 days of release. There was a two-horse race on the Friday box office chart. 2018 could lose that entire lead next weekend, but I chose to focus on the positive for now.įriday Estimates: Post Nearly Ties Jumanji $6.13 million to $5.9 million It is still very early in the year, extremely early, but 2018 does have a $27 million / 5.1% lead over 2017 at $553 million to $526 million. This was still 5.9% higher than the same weekend last year, and that’s the more important number. Overall, the box office fell 4.7% from last weekend, earning $165 million over the the three-day weekend. The best “new” release of the week was The Post, which expanded into second place with $23.06 million, while the best truly new release of the week was The Commuter at $15.80 million. At this point, I would be shocked if it didn’t finish with $350 million domestically, while I assume Sony has a planned trilogy in the works. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle continues to surprise analysts earning $35.18 million over the MLK long weekend. Weekend Wrap-Up: Jumanji Nears $300 million after $35.18 million MLK Long Weekend The film will have no trouble getting to $800 million worldwide, probably by the end of this coming weekend, while $900 million isn’t completely out of the question. China was the film’s biggest market, both of the weekend and overall, as it earned $7.71 million over the weekend for a two-week total of $66.50 million. Had the film earned half of that, it still would have been a financial success worthy of a sequel. Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle remained in first place with $32.6 million on 33,000 screens in 83 markets for totals of $450.8 million internationally and $767.3 million worldwide. International Box Office: Jumanji is King of the Market with $32.6 million However, in the end, I went with Coco, which technically came out a couple of weeks ago, but the screener arrived late and it really deserves the title of Pick of the Week. For example, the biggest release of the week, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, is one of the best, as is one of the smallest releases, Miss Kiet’s Children. That said, a high percentage of these are worth picking up with many Pick of the Week contenders. There’s no more than that for the secondary Blu-ray releases. It is a slow week with less than a dozen releases in the main section, and that includes two late reviews. Home Market Releases for March 20th, 2018 Both are absolutely worth picking up, but in the end, I went with My Hero Academia. The best of this week’s releases are Jane and My Hero Academia Season Two, Volume One. There are a trio of Pick of the Week contenders, including Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, but that’s a late review. However, there are also a few films in the main section that wouldn’t even be included in the secondary releases on a normal week. There are only a couple of first-run releases coming out this week, Father Figures and Insidious: The Last Key. It’s a short week for one reason: Star Wars: The Last Jedi, which came out last week, but it is still scaring away top-notch releases.
