The big box office list is many things, but what the top-most winners show more than anything else is animation in its varied glories: live action visual effects (Star Wars! Jumanji!) and character animation (Frozen; Spies In Disguise).
Three Days of Grosses
1.) Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker -- 4,406 theaters -- $76M -- $365.8M
2.) Jumanji: Next Level -- 4,227 theaters -- $33.2M (+25%) -- $173.3M
3.) Frozen 2 -- 3265 theaters (-600) -- $16.8M (+29%) -- $421.5M
4.) Little Women -- 3,308 theaters -- $16.5M -- $29M (1st weekend)
5.) Spies in Disguise -- 3,502 theaters -- $13.4M -- $22.3M (1st weekend)
6.) Uncut Gems -- 2,341 theaters (+2336) -- 9.3M -- $19.7M
7.) Knives Out -- 2022 theaters (-513), -- $10M (+54%) -- $110.5M
8.) Cats -- 3,380 theaters -- $5M -- $18M
9.) Bombshell -- 1480 theaters (+1476), -- $4.8M (-6%) -- $15.8M
10.) Richard Jewell -- 2502 theaters -- $3M (+16%) -- $16.1M/Wk
The old adage of never expect much from a "message picture" sometimes holds true and sometimes does not. This season, the old wisdom appears to have some teeth as Bombshell and Eastwood's Richard Jewell have failed to find much of an audience.
Meanwhile around the world, Disney has a large claim on box office, but there are are (also, too) a few other players in the game:
Worldwide Grosses
Star Wars: RoS -- $724.8M
Jumanji: NL -- $472M
Frozen 2 --$1.218B
Spies in Disguise -- $34,294,856
Abominable -- $176,829,840
