The box office podium
Prediction of the top 3 films at the domestic box office | 15th to August 17, 2025
Week 33 | 15th to August 17, 2025
It will be a hard weekend when we officially enter the dog's dog days in August. In this context, we will enter into the domestic box office of less than $ 13 million in the amount of $ 13 and break a series of 13 consecutive weeks over this benchmark. Since the end of the first quarter (May 9th to 11th) we have only under $ 100 million at the domestic box office since the end of the first quarter (May 9th to 11th) Thunderbolts*. This will be the second framework of $ 100 million since the second quarter, and we assume that the weekend in the entire area ends in the middle of high $ 70 million. Led by a solid word of mouth for mouthpieces for Weaponswith a delay More triggered Friday in the second and a fight Nobody 2, What we believe will open in the individual digits. The business will continue to be slow until the end of the month, although the box office is not expected to open a solid opening weekend until the next one is published Conjure up Title (currently tracks to open at 9/5 at USD 35 million).
1. Weapons
Warner Bros. | Week 2
Weekend area: $ 22 million – 28 million US dollars
Showtime Markethare: 13%
Professionals
- WBS original horror hit Weapons It was done to weapons one of the best mysterious advertising campaigns for ages in order to consider this past framework with $ 43.5 million (to Sunday estimates). Critics and audience took the bait and were both satisfied, which means Exit (-15% second weekend drop) or sinner (-5% second weekend drop). All elements are available for another victory, including a lack of strong competition and a growing hunger for the original product in the multiplex. The domestic balance sheet is currently $ 48.75 million and USD 81.25 million ww.
Disadvantages
- The upper end of the prediction of our panel is USD 28 million, but the lower end of USD 22 million would mean a decrease of almost -50% for Weapons Which is not as amazing as some think. If you build your campaign around Mystery Box Surprise, the probability that the debut with Horrorian was pre -installed was high. The drop will be most likely to be similar to that of director Zach Cregger's previous film “Not the surprise/go in blind” Barbar This was set in the opening day of the Fantastic Four on weekends 2nd Marvel, before giving it up in droves on subsequent frames. The biggest negative, however, is that this framework is another summer 2005 slot that no longer have a business for holdovers and weak debuts that have no business this season, even in the tailing.
2. More triggered Friday
Walt Disney Pictures | Week 2
Weekend area: 14 million US dollars -18 million US dollars
Showtime Markethare: 12%
Professionals
- An opening of $ 28.58 million for More triggered Friday (Something according to estimates of 29 million US The bare weaponWhich should at least get the conversation that comedies can still pull ticket buyers in the theater area. Positive audience notes (93% on RT, “A” Cinemascore) will make a major contribution to helping this title, but do not expect that the 110.2 million US dollar inland intake of 110.2 million US dollars from 2003 corresponds.
Disadvantages
- Moderately positive reviews (73% on rotten tomatoes) let this continuation of long paint down, especially since it was considered the easy winner of the weekend Weapons Bleed up the roof. Instead, it became below average and #2 Studio Disney was asked again, as the same IP mining, which increased so much in the years, let it down in 2025. One possibility is in itHocus Pocus 2Present Disappointed) And it is difficult to lure the audience back as soon as it is used to catching products like this at home. Nevertheless, our panel predicts a decline of less than by -50% in the second year Gabby's doll house: the film At the end of September.
3. Nobody 2
Universal pictures | NEW
Opening weekend range: $ 7 million $ 10 million
Showtime Markethare: 13%
Professionals
- Despite its modest global performance ($ 57.5 million), the 2021 action film No one Deserved solid reviews (85% on RT) that celebrate a transformative role for middle -aged Call Saul better Actor Bob Odenkirk with his “Everyguy” amateur. Now he is back in addition to the original supporting arms (Connie Nielsen, Rza, Christopher Lloyd) and newcomers to Colin Hanks and Sharon Stone. However, reviews are still available, but although Early reactions Praise the film's bone crush. This is the first non-John-Wick film of production companies 87north, which, however, deserves a continuation, although Night 2 Comes next year …
Disadvantages
- The original No one Opened during the final curve of Prime Pandemic in March 2021 with a large push from Universal, which showed an opening of $ 6.8 million and only $ 27.56 million in Germany. Yes, the original John Wick (of that No one only divides the same writer, producer and sound with) only 43 million US dollars domestically, but this flick terminated the return of a legendary action hero in Keanu Reeves ((((The matrixPresent speedPresent Point break). On the other hand, the appeal of No one It was installed that the strong comedy star Odenkirk turned into a killing machine, a novelty that cannot be duplicated in a sequel.
