Where it turns up
Friday, April 23, 2021 The 'I'm back' weekend, April 2021
In the note
Every once in a while these Anime movies come along and do some business, we saw that happen in Jan ’19 with Dragon Ball: Super Broly, so clearly whey they hit, they hit big.
Friday, August 26, 2022 Fourth weekend of August 2022
On the chart Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero (wk 2): $4.7M, -78%
Expected 'Entirely possible that this will drop 80%... around $4 million' Actual: $4.7M, -78%

However, the exits aren’t very good so far and word of mouth from the preview shows last night might hold it down a little lower. Bullet Train - Looks pretty stable today, figure a drop of about 35% for a weekend in the mid 5’s. Beast - Looks iffy today, down 60% for a weekend in the mid 4’s. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero - Um, I mentioned last week that these Anime films tend to be a tad front loaded, but this is falling apart faster than a Miami Beach Condo with a leaky pool.

As we all say our prayers in regards to the slight daylight we’re hearing about the strike, BarbenHeimer is continuing to prop up the box-office. We’ll be well above the 10 year norm this weekend by about 10%, and as we’ve been doing since mid last month we’ll be well ahead of the same weekend last year (Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, Beast), probably by 40% or so.
