Disney really had to twist the numbers to make that happen.

Not buying their reported gross.  It defies logic.  In fact a couple weeks ago, their was also a suspisious uptick in grosses.  Wonder what movie(s) lost gross just so Disney can falsely claim Black Pather grossed $700M at the box office.

This inflating of grosses to do false chest puffing really makes me dislike movie studios.

DHD Fri Update - Christopher Robin 24.9M, The Spy Who Dumped Me 12.1M, Darkest Minds 6.4M, Death of a Nation 2M Peterlee Aug 04, 00:44

Surprised that "Death of a Nation" flop that badly. I kept being told that it would gross higher than Hollywood's 'liberal nonsenses' {nm} Peterlee Aug 04, 00:49

They’re saving their money for the Last Jedi remake. {nm} austpow Aug 04, 01:05

Spent on the handful of street pills needed to get through another desolate day in our can't-keep-up backwaters {nm} DTXbro Aug 04, 07:45

Perhaps worth noting, if est 10-day cume holds, MISS6 will be running (at same point) ~$16m ahead of MISS5, which delisted @ ~$157. {nm} Qix Aug 04, 02:02

Updated to this morning $26.2M {nm} Antibody Aug 04, 08:55

not really, all they had to do was make the movie and release it into a lot of theaters for a long time {nm} slipping jimmy Aug 05, 13:16

They mean this weekends numbers. 10x as many people at thise 25 theaters didn't suddenly decide to go see it this weekend. {nm} JDolphin Aug 06, 00:55

Actually, $2.3M is not bad for a documentary pquicio Aug 05, 09:53

it'll lose a ton of theaters in its third weekend and it actually declined 20% from Friday to Saturday which isnt a great sign for legs Moviesnob Aug 05, 10:50
