We will fall considerably behind the same weekend in 2019, but Captain Marvel’s $153 million opening is the reason we’ll be short when compared to this year. There’s an interesting aspect to this weekend that’s evolved over time, and it echoes some of the ideas I’ve been talking about here.

The main character here, Captain Marvel, was the appetizer for that feast.

And that’s saying something, because some really good titles have launched this week including Captain Marvel, Zootopia, Cinderella and Kong: Skull Island.
