Looking at the Weekend: Jun. 20-22, 2025
There are three films releasing this weekend that all have the potential to be the top release. While it’s likely going to be Pixar’s Elio, 28 Years Later is the long-awaited third film in Danny Boyle’s zombie series, which could provide surprising competition for the animated original. Also in the hunt is Bride Hard, which…

OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers released on Rotten Tomatoes’ trailer YouTube Channels.

Ballerina will see if it can tap into the John Wick fandom and that might help it top Lilo & Stitch but even if it doesn’t, it will easily win out over the rest of this week’s wide and expanding releases. OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers released on…

Looking at the Weekend: May 30-Jun. 1, 2025
With a horror film and a new Karate Kid film releasing, the second weekend for Lilo & Stitch and Mission: Impossibe will have at least some token competition. While Lilo will likely remain at the top, Karate Kid Legends is likely to be the top new release. OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films…

A battle of two behemoths. The Mission: Impossible franchise takes on the Disney live-action remake franchise and while it might be close, the recent stumble of Snow White suggests Final Reckoning will top Lilo & Stitch. OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers released on Rotten Tomatoes’ trailer YouTube Channels.…

Although Thunderbolts* had a decent second weekend, it should fade just enough this coming weekend to allow Final Destination: Bloodlines to eke out a top-spot victory. OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers released on Rotten Tomatoes’ trailer YouTube Channels. Below are some other films that are releasing this weekend…

Looking at the Weekend: May 9-11, 2025
Although Thunderbolts* didn’t top $100 million like a lot of Marvel movies do, it will have a strong second weekend against this set of new releases, none of which seems like the kind of films to top the box office. Most (except maybe Clown in a Cornfield and Fight or Flight are likely to even…

Although Sinners topped all comers last weekend, it won’t be able to stop Thunderbolts* from taking the top spot at the box office. OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers released on Rotten Tomatoes’ trailer YouTube Channels. Below are some other films that are releasing this weekend that we haven’t…

Between horror film Until Dawn and action sequel The Accountant 2, it’s very clear that Sinners may get a second weekend at the top. Between these two titles, The Accountant 2 has a slightly better chance at beating Until Dawn. OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers released on Rotten…

Now that Minecraft Movie has taken a second weekend atop the box office, we’ll see its first real test. Sinners is the most likely contender for the top spot due to its oft-neglected demographic, though Sneaks is also targeting the same demo but younger. Ultimately, I think Sinners will beat out Minecraft and everything else…

Looking at the Weekend: Apr. 11-13, 2025
It will be a tough week to come out on top, especially given the tremendous debut of A Minecraft Movie. However, I don’t think any of the three new releases will make it. They all have the potential to be the top new release and I find it difficult to pick one but Drop will…

Looking at the Weekend: Apr. 4-6, 2025
With the mediocre opening of A Working Man barely shaking out Snow White, A Minecraft Movie should have no problem topping the chart. Although I can’t think of any Minecraft fans who are excited to see the movie, it has some major names in the case and some might check it out for curiosity (or…

Snow White‘s ability to stick at the top spot is dependent on how well the three competitors do against it. If they split the available audience, Snow White can easily remain #1. Of the three film, all of them have the opportunity to be the number one new release. Death of the Unicorn has horror…

There will be a lot of options this week to give audiences a chance to pick something new. Mickey 17 had a solid debut but not enough of one to avoid its possible toppling by either the new Looney Tunes movie or Novocaine OTHER RELEASES We are only looking at films that have had trailers…
