Oh, the drama of the box office! Hollywood Hrishita here, ready to spill the tea on the latest numbers from the South Korean box office. Grab your popcorn, darlings! 🍿
Pilot’s Sky-High Success!
So, “Pilot” decided to soar high, raking in a cool $5.03 million over the weekend. With a 46% share of the market, it’s not just flying; it’s practically cruising in first class. After just 12 days, the film has already bagged a whopping $20.3 million. Somebody get this movie a frequent flyer card already! ✈️
Heartspring: Teenieping of Love – Awww, So Cute!
Taking the second spot, we have the adorably titled “Heartspring: Teenieping of Love.” This Korean-produced kids’ animation collected $1.74 million over the weekend. After five days, it’s sitting pretty at $2.68 million. Who knew love could be so lucrative?
Deadpool & Wolverine – Smash Hit, Literally!
Ah, the bromance we didn’t know we needed! “Deadpool & Wolverine” slashed its way to third place with $842,000, thanks to premium large format screenings. Three weekends in, and it’s amassed $14.2 million. Not bad for a duo who loves to break the fourth wall… and some bones.
Despicable Me 4 – Minions Losing Steam?
In a shocking twist (not really), “Despicable Me 4” dropped from third to fourth place, bringing in $777,000 for a total of $9.27 million since July 24. Come on, Minions, don’t let Gru down!
Revolver – Crime Pays, Sort Of?
New on the scene, Korean crime thriller “Revolver” earned $749,000, with a five-day total of $1.33 million. Looks like crime does pay… but only just enough for a moderately fancy dinner out.
Inside Out 2 – Emotional Rollercoaster!
Adding another $442,000 to its loot, “Inside Out 2” now sits at a mind-blowing $60.9 million since June 12. It’s the top imported film this year. Joy and Sadness must be throwing a party in our heads right now!
Escape – Slow and Steady…?
Korea’s “Escape” brought in $185,000, making its total $17.6 million after a month. Seems like it’s taking the scenic route to success.
Japanese Animation – Double Trouble!
Two Japanese animation films, “Bocci! The Rock! Movie Part 1” and “Detective Conan the Movie: The Million Dollar Pentagram,” took the next spots. “Bocci” made $171,000 over the weekend and $353,000 in five days. “Detective Conan” earned $140,000, totaling $4.97 million since mid-July. Anime fans, unite!
Twisters Preview – A Storm’s A-Brewin’
Sneak peeks of “Twisters” scored $124,000 ahead of its Wednesday release. Looks like this one’s brewing up a storm!
Weekend Box Office Woes
Overall, the weekend box office was a bit of a letdown at $10.9 million. Weak for summer, right? Usually, people flock to the cinemas for some cool AC and horror chills. Guess everyone’s too busy enjoying the actual weather. 😅
Moral of the Story:
In Hollywood, it’s not just about who makes the most money; it’s about who makes the most noise while doing it. So keep your seatbelts fastened, folks; the box office is a bumpy ride!
