#Sony’s new SpiderMan-lore based CBM #MadameWeb is once again out of US #BoxOffice’s Top3, and this time once for all, as the film led by #DakotaJohnson also with #SydneySweeney grossed just 425K on 3rd WED, dropping -51.2% from last WED, and hitting a 36.9M cume after 15 days,… pic.twitter.com/TvAcUgghcX

Dune 2 predictions for opening weekend?
I said $88M a few weeks ago on the Dune thread. Sticking with that.

$88,000,001

Still saying just over $100M.
$12M in Thursday previews, vs $5.1M for Part 1.
Unsure if that includes fan previews from last week, but either way, great start.

Here's the breakdown from Deadline:
Legendary/Warner Bros Dune Part Two has now grown to $12M+ per Warners. That's from 4,500 locations, and Imax alone delivered $4.5M of that number or 38%. Of that preview figure, $2M came from an Imax fan screening on Feb. 25.

#DunePartTwo wielding that desert power at US #BoxOffice, after scoring a STRONG 32.2M FRI Opening Day incl. 12M (2M SUN + 10M THU) Previews, biggest in both #TimothéeChalamet & #DenisVilleneuve careers!

Close to #Oppenheimer’s 33M Op. Day on SUMMER 2023!
Almost 2x 2021 #Dune’s… pic.twitter.com/jKcQ1dkfSn
Even if it falls just short of $88M, I was not far off.
In all my excitement, I made a rookie mistake and failed to consider the fact that this movie is damn near three hours long.
Which = fewer screenings, which, of course = less money.
Still, this thing will have legs for weeks if not months, and I'm betting next weekend's hold will be particularly impressive.

It'll have Oppenheimer type legs for sure. Maybe not QUITE to that level due to the Barbenheimer effect, but some of that ground may be made up by the insane word of mouth.
Went to my second showing today, it was more packed than on opening night, and got even more applause at the end.

That's awesome.

This is the kind of stuff we need AI for
$81.5M it is. Crazy how close that is to Oppenheimer. ($82.4M)
Once the official numbers come in, it might even be a virtual tie. Gonna be real interesting to see how their trajectories compare in the weeks to come.

That ended with ~330 M domestic and ~958 M worldwide. Which is, obviously, good (#62 All-Time), but extra remarkable that it was going head-to-head with Barbie. The highest-grossing movie never to be #1.
The one big advantage for Dune is it has no other major blockbuster to compete with until Godzilla x Kong on March 29. (Unless there's something before that?)
Forgot about Ghostbusters on March 22.

There it is. Upped to $82.5M.
‘DUNE: PART TWO’ officially debuts with $82.5M at the domestic box office.

A quick snapshot of all #IMAX 70mm screenings of #DunePartTwo for the rest of the week at iconic giant BFI IMAX in London (and some thoughts below). Just insane!

Overseas, #DunePartTwo’s 5-day opening also came higher, crushed industry’s projections grossing a strong 100M on over 71 markets (vs #Oppenheimer’s 98M),

Same thing in LA. So glad I bought a ticket for a second viewing in advance (for Tuesday), because there are no good seats left for all the good IMAX theaters/showtimes through the weekend.
Same for Lincoln Square in Manhattan all week.
Dune's run should be fairly short now that footage of king Kong riding on godzillas back has been released for k v g 2.
#DunePartTwo starts on weekdays spreading desert power at US #BoxOffice, grossing strong 7.3M on first MON, #8 biggest ever for MAR (Top10 below), dropping -66.2% from SUN (beating #Logan’s 7.2M, -70.1%)

$7.3M, as compared to $12.6M for Oppenheimer. Although since that was a summer release, not a very fair comparison.
But, that's still quite a bit lower than I would've expected. Still think this is gonna have huge legs in the weekends though.
I don't know a single person who says, "Hey, it's Monday night, let's go see a 3 hour movie."
Spring Break is this week for some and next week for others, but since it's not really a movie for kids and all kids have the week off, not sure that will translate into much extra coin.
And there's not really a kids movie to dump the littles at while mom and dad (well just dad),go see Dune.

Dune 2 better watch out...
My kids want to go see this. A beautiful 1 hr and 34 m runtime.

Here's a chart comparing it against Oppenheimer and Logan. So far, trending a bit below both, but it's following Logan's weekdays almost exactly.

In just 7 days, #DunePartTwo beats 2021 #Dune’s entire 108.9M run at US #BoxOffice, after grossing strong 6.4M on first THU!

A fantastic -47% hold for Dune in its second weekend with $44M, despite a strong King Fu Panda opening. Well ahead of Logan ($38M), much closer to Oppenheimer. ($46M)
After beating 2021 Dune’s run in just 7 days on THU at US #BoxOffice, sequel #DunePartTwo kept harvesting spice grossing strong 12.3M on 2nd FRI.
