Ralph Breaks The Box Office With $84.5M Thanksgiving Weekend

This past weekend saw the release of Ralph Breaks the Internet, Creed II, and Robin Hood. But how did it fare?

Ralph Breaks the Internet exceeded expectations, taking in $84.5 million in its five-day weekend, and $55.7 million in its three-day weekend. This is just a couple million higher than its predecessor did in the same weekend. As such, it’s tracking to do better by a small margin, but given the increased emphasis on the international box office in the years since that first film, it seems highly likely it’ll make a hell of a lot more on a worldwide scale. Plus, with its A- CinemaScore, it’s clear audiences were pretty happy with what they had to see, and with few big films coming out over the next week or two, it’ll likely hold strong.

At no. 2, we have Creed II with $55.8 million five-day opening and a $35.3 million three-day opening, it outmatches its predecessor’s $29.6 three-day opening. While it wasn’t as well-received as the first film (though at 82% on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s no slouch), its A CinemaScore proves that it delivers the good audiences were hoping for.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald dropped a respectable 52.3% from its first weekend to take in $29.7 million. While this isn’t much considering the brand recognition behind this, it has managed to take in $439 million worldwide. Will it be enough to give Warner Bros. the confidence to stay the course? We’ll see.

Also, in WTF news, Venom has broken $820 million, proving once and for all that there is no God and that we’re all going to die alone.
