Mufasa made $175M in profit

It has crossed $715M worldwide and has now surpassed ‘Dune: Part Two’ to become the 6th highest grossing film of 2024. What a run for a film with such a sluggish opening. Stumbled across this yesterday. It’s well known TLK is #1, but TLK 2 being on this list without a theatrical release is...

Disney+ debut. $720M-ish finish?

Looks like it’s going to have enough left in the tank to pass Dune 2’s $715M and become 6th highest grossing of 2024. Still pulling off nearly $2M domestic weekends. Incredible legs

There it is!

I think the online hate would be slightly less, for sure. But in general it's just an inferior version still, even with the minor additions it attempted. It needed to change up more with the story, not add useless scenes (extra scenes with Simba/Timon/Pumbaa and grubs) and remove important ones...

Had a 4% increase domestically from last weekend

the legs that keep on givin

It would've been silly for theaters to drop Mufasa before Sonic - and they were smarter than that. Sonic had the run of an MCU film. It had a giant fan rush at the start, then it dies down because what is left is just the general audience, who don't have as much of an interest in Sonic. It’s not...

Mufasa goes PVOD on February 18

It isn’t even a debate anymore, $700M is pretty much certain with great both the domestic and OS holds are. Just a question now of how far can it go.

Crossed $600M yesterday. Time for the final stretch.

250 domestic seems to be nearly a lock at this point, which that alone would bring it over 630+. Another 70 from OS shouldn't be out of reach to let it squeak by 700. should have enough left in the tank with the fantastic holds it has been having.
