So with the expected accuracy of a word cloud, here’s my best take on the weekend box-office. #1 Men in Black International - As you’ve probably heard already, this film isn’t quite what most of the business thought it was going to be, and there will be a few people this weekend asking ‘what happened?’.
Friday, June 21, 2019 Third weekend of June 2019
On the chart Men in Black: International (wk 2): $10.7M, -64%
Expected 'Down 55% for a weekend in the low teens' Actual: $10.7M, -64%
In the note
The numbers look consistent with the previews last night, figure a weekend in the low/mid teens. #3 Men in Black International - Looking fairly typical for a summer tentpole in the 2nd weekend, figure its down 55% for a weekend in the low teens. Anna - The critics did their best PC police job on this film (so are they going to go back and reconsider all of Alfred Hitchcocks films now too?), so there’s not much going on with this right now.
