Venom estimates are up to $90 mil for the weekend now, which is a pandemic-era high, about $10 mil higher than the original and just shy of Joker October's OW record. Quite the start to a loaded October.

I couldn't fit on it my BO slate since I was committed to an Eternals/Spider-Man duo , but I'm at least mildly regretting leaving it off my Ultimate slate at the moment (that could turn into severe regret or no regret at all depending on how Encanto does at Thanksgiving).

Honestly I've got no read on what movies are going to hit or not. I never would have picked Halloween Kills nor Venom to do as well as they've done. The times they are a changin'

Another solid weekend at the box office with Dune putting up $40 mil (highest for a Warner Brothers title this year) and The French Dispatch registered a pandemic record $25K PTA for a limited release. Going to be interesting to see how the November slate stacks up against October's run of blockbusters.
