Matt Damon will take command of the U.S. box office this weekend, with a debut that’s bound to excite and amaze. Well, at least that’s the plan. Early word suggests the film may be two tech heavy, which might not sell well to some audiences. However, any space-based sci-fi film has an edge at the box office if it’s set in the modern or near-modern time frame. There are no other wide releases, but even the second weekend of Hotel Transylvania 2 isn’t likely to stop Ridley Scott’s new film.
