In the note
Clearly this didn’t connect with the horror audience (and it’s day and date with HBO+), figure a weekend of about $6 million. Free Guy/Candyman - Both of these are holding nicely this weekend, especially Free Guy (which should pass $100 million this weekend), figure they’re both around $5 million or maybe a little less for the weekend. The Card Counter - Went about 500 runs and although the specialty market is still a work in progress in LA and NY, it’s really nice to see The Grove back open and it’s the #1 gross in the country on this film right now. Looks like 800-900k for the weekend. Show me the Father - This faith based film went 1000 runs and there’s not much going on box office wise.
