By Monday, as predicted on Saturday, it’ll be at $38 million total. It won’t break even until, maybe, next weekend. Remember, that $50 million budget and many millions more in advertisements. The folks over at Sony must be eagerly waiting to pop those champagne bottles in anticipation of, hopefully, recouping back their money, maybe, in one or two weekends from now. EARLIER: If “The Woman King” is the resounding box-office success most prognosticators claim it to be, then why is its second weekend gross going to be so weak? Isn’t the truth of it all that “The Woman King” is actually underwhelming expectations at the box-office? It has a budget of $50 million and will probably have a $38 million overall total by Monday morning. Weak numbers, sorry. This just confirms to me how artificially created the “buzz” was. There is none. When you have an entire mainstream media apparatus backing up a movie like they did with this one then you’ll end up getting false perceptions. And yet, these pundits, especially the Forbes guy, are continuing to play the game of pretend .. “The Woman King” will probably have a 4550% drop when all is said and done this weekend. It’ll most likely garner around $10 million and place third behind “Don’t Worry Darling” and the “Avatar” reissue. Maybe it breaks even next weekend? Contribute Hire me
