Muscular Box Office

Buffness predominates as the U.S./Canadian and World box offices are dominated by super hero movies which finish 1st, 2nd and 5th. (I understand that a few records were broken.) ...

Three Days Of Grosses

1) Avengers: Endgame -- 4,662 -- $350M -- $350M (1st weekend)

2) Captain Marvel -- 2,435 (-218) -- $8M (-12%) -- $413.5M

3) The Curse of La Llorona -- 3,372 -- $7.5M (-72%) -- $41.2M

4) Breakthrough -- 2,913 (+89) -- $6.3M (-44%) -- $26.1M

5) Shazam! -- 3,631 (-552) -- $5.5M (-67%) -- $131.1M

6) Little -- 2,119 (-548) -- $3.4M (-59%) -- $35.8M

7) Dumbo -- 2,380 (-845) -- $3.2M (-51%) -- $107M

8) Pet Sematary -- 1,655 (-1,491) -- $1.2M (-73%) -- $52.6M

9) Us -- 1,225 (-1,009) -- $1.1M (-73%) -- $172.8M

10) Penguins -- 1,815 -- $1M (-54%) -- $5.7M

Worldwide, Avengers raked in $1.2 billion in its opening weekend. (Which is quite good, as I understand it.)

Straight-ahead cartoons are currently down-list, but How To Train Your Dragon 3 has now earned $516,091,660 on a global basis, 70% of that outside the U.S. and Canada. The Lego Movie 2 has collected $189.2 million, while Wonder Park has reached $103.1 million, and won't be earning its production costs and advertising budget back, more's the pity.
