Where are We as of 11/4

THIS WAS THROWAWAY WEEKEND AT BOXOFFICE WITH NO NEW WIDE OPENINGS. "ENCANTO" & "HOUSE OF GUCCI" BOTH HELD WELL IN SECOND WEEKENDS THANKS TO CONTINUING INTEREST FROM FAMILIES & ADULTS -- TWO AUDIENCES MEDIA PUNDITS SAID WERE MORE LIKELY TO STAY HOME STREAMING. DEFINITELY HELPS THAT NEITHER OF THESE FILMS IS STREAMING DAY & DATE. AS EXPECTED OVERALL MARKETPLACE FELL SHARPLY, PER COMSCORE, WITH $51.4M, DOWN 46.9% FROM $96.8M PRIOR WEEKEND. YEAR TO DATE COMSCORE TALLY IS $3.704B, UP 67.4% VS. 2020'S $2.212B....

DISNEY ANIMATION'S "ENCANTO" HELD ON TO FIRST PLACE WITH $12.7M AT 3,980 THEATRES ($3,201), DOWN JUST 53% FROM $27.2M FOR 3 DAYS OVER THANKSGIVING. THAT'S IN LINE WITH PAST DISNEY THANKSGIVING SECOND WEEKEND SLIDES FOR PRE-PANDEMIC TITLES LIKE "RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET" WITH -54.5% IN 2018 & "FROZEN II" WITH -59% IN 2019. "ENCANTO'S" DONE $58M DOMESTIC + $58.1M INTERNATIONALLY = $116.1M/WW....

"ENCANTO" WON BEST ANIMATED FEATURE IN NATIONAL BOARD OF REVIEW'S AWARDS LAST WEEK, PUTTING IT ON TRACK FOR OSCAR'S ANIMATION RACE WHERE IT WILL HAVE ADVANTAGE BY BEING DIVERSITY DRIVEN STORY ABOUT YOUNG COLOMBIAN GIRL WHO'S ONLY MEMBER OF HER FAMILY NOT TO POSSESS MAGICAL GIFT. ...

SONY/BRON/MONTECITO'S FAMILY APPEAL COMEDY ADVENTURE "GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERLIFE" PLACED SECOND AGAIN IN WEEKEND 3 WITH $10.4M (-57%) AT 4,059 THEATRES ($2,550). IT'S DONE $102.2M/DOM + $42.9M/INT = $145.1M/WW....

MGM/BRON'S DRAMA "HOUSE OF GUCCI" WAS THIRD AGAIN IN WEEKEND TWO WITH $6.8M AT 3,477 THEATRES ($1,948),SLIDING JUST 53% FROM $14.4M 3 DAY OPENING OVER THANKSGIVING. IT'S DONE $33.6M DOMESTIC + ANOTHER $33.6M INTERNATIONALLY FOR GLOBAL CUME OF $67.2M. LADY GAGA, WHO STARS WITH ADAM DRIVER, RECEIVED NY FILM CRITICS CIRCLE'S BEST ACTRESS AWARD LAST WEEK, MAKING HER LIKELY OSCAR CONTENDER. ...

NEXT WEEKEND WILL BRING DISNEY & 20TH CENTURY STUDIOS' CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED PG-13 MUSICAL REMAKE "WEST SIDE STORY," DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG. HIGH PROFILE FAMILY APPEAL FILM IS TRACKING SUGGESTING SLOW START. AVERAGE FIRST CHOICE SCORE NOW IS TWO POINTS BELOW NORM. BUT CRITICS LOVE IT -- 95% FRESH ON ROTTEN TOMATOES. SHOULD ACCELERATE AT BOXOFFICE OVER CHRISTMAS-NEW YEAR'S HOLIDAY PERIOD. IT'S RIGHT KIND OF HOLIDAY ENTERTAINMENT & CLASSIC 1957 BROADWAY MUSICAL IT'S BASED ON HAS MEMORABLE SCORE BY LEONARD BERNSTEIN & LATE STEPHEN SONDHEIM....

"WSS" IS TYPE FILM THAT REALLY BENEFITS FROM BEING AWARDS DRIVEN. GOT STARTED ON ROAD TO OSCARS WITH BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY WIN FOR JANUSZ KAMINSKI LAST WEEK FROM NY FILM CRITICS CIRCLE. COULD LEAD WAY TO BROAD SUPPORT FROM FILMMAKING GUILDS, WHICH CAN ADD UP TO SUPPORT FROM MULTIPLE ACADEMY BRANCHES, WHICH CAN BE BEST PICTURE WINNING FORMULA BECAUSE WITH OSCAR'S BYZANTINE PREFERENTIAL VOTING SYSTEM IT'S MUCH BETTER TO BE "LIKED" BY MANY OSCAR VOTERS THAN "LOVED" BY JUST PASSIONATE FEW. ...

CHECK OUT GOWER STREET ANALYTICS' WORLDWIDE BOXOFFICE REPORT IN LATEST SCREENDOLLARS NEWSLETTER: "GLOBAL THEATRICAL BUSINESS HAS SHOWN AN IMPRESSIVE RECOVERY OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. ON PAPER DECEMBER HAS A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF VERY ATTRACTIVE TENTPOLES TO END UP AS SECOND BEST GLOBAL PERFORMING MONTH SINCE THE PANDEMIC STARTED. THE MOVIES ARE THERE, THE AUDIENCES ARE WILLING TO GO. FINGERS ARE CROSSED THAT COVID CASES RISING IN EUROPE AND THE NEWLY-DISCOVERED OMICRON VARIANT POPPING UP AROUND THE WORLD WON'T ONCE AGAIN CROSS THE PLAN."...
