‘Frozen 2’ Still Sizzling With $37 Million in Third Weekend


Variety predicts less than BO Mojo. In any case, a billion WW by Star Wars opening.

“Frozen 2” is gradually warming up the North American box office, with an estimated $37 million its third weekend at 4,348 sites, early estimates showed Friday.

Disney’s animated sequel is projected to decline about 57%. Should estimates hold, “Frozen 2” should finish the weekend with nearly $340 million domestically in it first 17 days.

With global box office at more than $740 million in its first two weeks, the latest adventures of Anna, Elsa, Kristoff and Olaf could become the sixth Disney movie (along with “Avengers: Endgame,” “Captain Marvel,” “Toy Story 4,” “Aladdin” and “The Lion King”) to cross $1 billion in 2019.

That article was written almost a day ago. Friday's numbers are only 7.85 million which would mean Saturday and Sunday would have to be huge for this to hit 37 million.

BOMOJO's is laughably even worse.

Wrong again, It was off by only $2.3m!
Of course the article was written Thursday, it's a projection.

"Wrong again."

Huh?

What was I wrong about? I said it would need to have a huge Sat. and Sun in order to hit 37 million. Please explain how I was "wrong".

Do you not agree that BOM's 43 million projection you linked was "laughably" off, as well?

Oh...and the article was written 1:00 pm FRIDAY afternoon. I responded Saturday morning.

At the top of the box office is Frozen II, dipping -59.7% with an estimated $34.7 million for a domestic cume totaling $337.6 million, making it the seventh highest grossing release of the year so far domestically. For some perspective, it wasn't until the original film's 61st day in release that it topped $337 million domestically, before going on to gross over $400 million after 57 weeks in release.

In addition to the domestic performance, Frozen II added another $90.2 million internationally, for an overseas cume that now totals over $582 million and a global tally that now stands just shy of $920 million. This means the animated feature will soon become the eighth 2019 release to top $1 billion globally, of which Disney has released six.
