I feel sorry for you and Black Phone 2 fighting for first place at the box office on a very slow Halloween weekend. – More Cipolletti
We are coming to the end of a very fun and busy weekend. Halloween was celebrated across the country, which meant people spent time dressing up to attend parties and go trick-or-treating, and for baseball fans, the last two games of an all-time great World Series were played on Friday and Saturday nights. With these sources of entertainment at play, one thing people haven’t done in recent days is go to the movies, and that’s largely reflected in domestic box office results.
With Yorgos Lanthimos Bugonia With the only major new release (which was extended from its release in limited markets last weekend), Hollywood didn’t make much of an effort to get people into theaters, and the end result was jose boonede I’m sorry and by Scott Derrickson black phone 2 are fighting for the top spot after their respective debuts in early October.

Sorry, Black Phone 2 was separated by just $100,000 in weekend box office numbers.
I’m sorry Not exactly a great opening weekend. D The film is the latest adaptation. A novel by Colin Hoover after the success of Justin Baldoni ends with us last summer (which grossed $349.7 million at the worldwide box office), but it didn’t make much of a splash upon its debut. He had to settle for second place last Sunday, Tatsuya failed to overtake Yoshihara Chainsaw Man – Movie: Rage ArcThat’s just $18 million. It’s been a rocky start for the title, but with the Halloween holiday extremely slow for theaters and anime titles dropping like rocks in their second weekend, the romantic drama has a new shot at the box office crown.
The results are not yet final, but according to the numberInitial reports show that I’m sorry It will rank as the number one new movie in America. Right now only $100,000 separates him and black phone 2 in the rankings, so things may change when the actual numbers come in. The Hoover adaptation has grossed $8.1 million since Friday, bringing its domestic total to $27.5 million.
Needless to say, the box office trajectory of Hoover’s new adaptation isn’t all that exciting. ends with us The execution took place last summer. By the 10th day of its domestic run in August 2024, the Blake animated film has already grossed $97.6 million.
I’m sorry It did not receive a very positive response from critics. When it first hit theaters, and audience response was somewhat lackluster, the film earned a “B” grade from those who received it. movie score Survey opening hours on weekends. The title’s overall box office performance is arguably boosted by ticket sales in overseas markets, as the film grossed $23.3 million overseas, bringing its worldwide total to $50.8 million.
as black phone 2 (which also features actor Mason Thames in a prominent role), it seems the title got a bit of a boost from moviegoers looking for spooky entertainment on the big screen for Halloween… but it didn’t do devastating business either. The show added $12.9 million to its domestic coffers last weekend, a slight drop of 53 percent. After debuting at #1 upon its premiere – and ticket sales dropping 38 percent during the scariest holiday of the year.
The estimated $8 million it has earned since Friday brings the sequel to $61.5 million so far in the United States and Canada. That means it’s essentially on the same box office trajectory as the original, which is pretty good considering Joe Hill’s 2022 adaptation ended its theatrical run with $90.1 million. Combined with $43.3 million outside the domestic market, the title became the latest to join the club of nine worldwide. Ethan HawkeThe Grabber grossed $104.7 million.
A feather in its cap: it outsold other 2025 franchise titles worldwide, including Gavin O’Connorde Contador 2 ($103.2 million), Akiva Shaffer The naked song ($102.1 million) and Simon Curtis Downton Abbey: the grand finale ($100.3 million).
Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Rage arc is the latest anime title to snub its second weekend on the big screen.
This can be said in the current market context. I’m sorry Y black phone 2 has performed reasonably well at the box office over the past three days, but the highlight of the performance Chainsaw Man – Movie: Rage Arc As mentioned above, this continues a rough trend for anime in theaters. We’ve seen several popular titles crown mediocre box office in recent years, but their success has been short-lived.
We saw a perfect example in September: Haruo Sotozaki Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Movie: Infinite Castle record setting When it grossed $70 million in its first three days of theatrical release… but then this report the following Sunday showed a staggering 75 percent drop in box office receipts.. new chainsaw man The film didn’t do poorly this weekend, but still saw a 67 percent drop in ticket sales. This is a problem with an obvious reason, as anime fans are very excited to see new releases when they first come out, but there has been a proven inability to generate word of mouth for titles that bring new audiences to theaters the following weekend.
To date, a large percentage of Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Rage Arc’s box office revenue comes from overseas. The animated film earned $30.8 million domestically, but grossed $129.9 million worldwide.
Bugonia came in fourth place in its first weekend in wide release
And then this Bugonia. It’s time to team up between Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone Having produced some truly excellent films, the industry is yet to see internal recognition translate into a major box office success. of 2018 amado and from 2023 poor thing They have a virtual tie as the highest-grossing hits on the market (both earned $34 million in their respective streaks), and it doesn’t seem like it. New film 2025 will become a challenger.
Bugonia With a limited release on October 22, the per-theater average was outstanding, grossing $41,756 per location… but that was only 17 films. Now that he’s moving nationally, he had to settle for an average of $2,349 and fourth place in the top 10. Word of mouth could serve it well, as it earned critical acclaim after its festival premiere this fall, but it also has some major box office competition in November.
Speaking of competition, the list of new features is set. Next Friday features Dan Trachtenberg Predator: WastelandsAnd it will be interesting to see how it fares after its streaming-only release in 2022. victim (previous title in the franchise).
