They are flexing their (sorely missed) box-office muscles today, and for example, as of this writing 7 of the top 10 grosses on Raya and the Last Dragon are in the Los Angeles DMA.

Expected Both up or barely down on the holiday reads Actual: Raya -46%, Tom & Jerry -50%; GvK vacuumed the weekend after Friday
In the note
Which would bring the 5 day to over $40 million, which is a tremendous accomplishment. I just wish it wasn’t being kept a secret. The Unholy - Not reporting grosses as well, but you would expect it to land somewhere similar to what the lower grossing Covid horror films have done. Now for the films that report #1 Nobody - This crowd pleaser from last weekend is holding in very nicely, figure it’s only down about 40% this weekend. #2 Raya and the Last Dragon - Still hanging in there, it’s actually up from last Friday.
