They just turned black for the weekend.
Sunday SoF jumped up to highest take per screen, beating Indy5 and Red Door. It was estimated behind Red Door.

Also, every single day since release, SoF has more $ per screen that Indy5.
Even when it added more than 13% more theaters for the weekend.

The same as Trump won. Any of 538 episodes of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is better than Sound of Freedom. Why go to this movie? Rhetorically, the answer is your Trumptard politics.

Not only did it make its production budget back by many, many more multiples than The Little Mermaid, but it also made the studio more money in total than TLM made for Disney. By twice as much and counting. And that's only assuming that the Rule of Thumb is still 2.0 and not 2.5 as Variety.com claimed it is now. Otherwise TLM lost Disney $50 Million.

It does suck for Tom Cruise though.

This has nothing to do with Trump. Almost nothing you talk about has anything to do with Trump, but Trump is all you ever think about.

It's not my problem you don't understand math. I'm not your math teacher.

Does anybody find this ironic: After Republicans worked tirelessly since their inception and successfully abolished the Democrat Party's legal Slavery, all it took was installing Obamination to bring Slavery back into a new heyday - with more Slaves during Obama than any time in history, including when Slavery was legal.

Will DR Domestic BO ever catch up to SoF?


DR is currently $5.5 M behind in Total Domestic BO, as of Friday.

Also, Thurs DR was under $800 per theater.

I had posted the Friday numbers from The Numbers, which were later updated. Bruce had underestimated, again. And he knocked SoF under DR, in error.

He also underpredicted SoF for the weekend, where it took 3rd place over DR, instead of 4th place as he predicted.
DR is $5.8M behind SoF in Domestic BO, and falling.

SoF has International dates listed on imdb. Mexico and UK. Aug 31 and Sept 1.


Barbie was overestimated, Oppy was underestimated.


SoF numbers for Thurs, Fri, Sat were still higher Box Office than 2 weeks prior. Sunday seems the first day where Box office is the lowest for that day of the week, in the run.

I'm going to make a 3rd list to add to these. It will be how much money in total the movies made after the 2x Rule of Thumb. I'm only going to add movies to the list once they finish their run in the theaters.

[Worldwide Box Office - (Production Budget *2)]

1. John Wick: Chapter 4 + $232,249,673
2. M3GAN + $156,902,618
3. Creed III + $124,448,615
4. Evil Dead Rise + $108,017,671
5. Scream IV + $98,834,132
6. Ant Man and the Wasp: Quantumania + $63,635,303
7. Fast X + $38,989,106
8. The Pope's Exorcist + $36,913,467
9. Mummies + $29,172,225
10. Jesus Revolution + $23,150,304
11. Cocaine Bear + $19,301,105
12. Knock at the Cabin + $14,712,293

TOTAL GAINS ON BOX OFFICE FINISHES 2023: $946,326,512


Losers
1. The Flash - $132,051,506
2. Shazam: Fury of the Gods - $117,807,638
3. Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves - $92,105,230
4. AIR - $50,551,734
5. 65 - $33,758,973
6. Magic Mike's Last Dance - $33,729,498

TOTAL LOSSES ON BOX OFFICE FINISHES 2023: $460,004,579


TOTAL GAIN/LOSS ON BOX OFFICE FINISHES 2023: $486,321,933


That's pretty terrible. Less than Half a Billion for the total US Hollywood Box Office and it's already just a week shy of August. Disney used to consider it a failure if just ONE of their movies didn't make them this much money.

Granted, even though there are big time losers in the theaters like Indy 5 right now that will bring the number down, there are some movies STILL in the box office like Guardians 3 and Super Mario Bros that will add a TON of money to that total once they're finally out of theaters. SMB alone will more than triple that current figure.

I'm just not going to add any movies to this last list until the numbers are finished. I'm already doing 3 other lists that take a lot of effort to update every week.



In the meantime, the list is still valuable if you had your eye on a particular movie and wanted to see how it was stacking up to the movies that are done. For example, Sound of Freedom is currently +$96,433,512, which would place it number 6 on the list, and The Little Mermaid is currently at +$48,481,661 which would put it number 8 on the list (number 9, if you've already added Sound of Freedom back, of course).

I might try download this film, I normally don't download films especially if I think its a good film and deserves support. However nobody seems to be making DVDs much anymore and I don't see any over seas release outside the USA


If the movie is good then I'm glad it is sucessful


‘Sound of Freedom’ film is a good conversation starter, but there is more to say
