Will 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' out-gross every other movie combined at the domestic box office Aug 7-9?
61% of users predicted YES — the community got this one right. 28 predictions cast.
'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' out-grossed every other movie in the domestic marketplace combined over the August 7-9 weekend, pulling in roughly $145 million in its second weekend alone, according to Variety, compared with a combined total in the range of $55-60 million for 'The Odyssey' (about $40 million), 'One Night Only' (about $5.7 million), 'Super Troopers 3' (about $4 million) and 'Ice Cream Man' (about $2.1 million).
The result marked one of the strongest second-weekend holds in box office history for a superhero film, helped by minimal drop-off from its record-setting opening and continued strong reviews and word of mouth. The dominant showing came in the same week the film also crossed the $1 billion global mark, reinforcing its status as the top release of the year.
Community sentiment correctly anticipated the outcome, with 61% of voters predicting Spider-Man would out-gross the rest of the field combined, matching the result.
