Comedy supplement is an unfortunate box office fluctuation

The weekend on September 12 proved that it is amazingly busy at the box office, although on paper, it was not. “Satan Slayer: Infiniti Castle” led the road with an amazing appearance of $ 70 millionBut this was just a tip of the iceberg. Unfortunately, with a wealth of options available for potential cinema pioneers, a long -awaited comedy supplement was left in dust.

“Spinal Tap II: The end is continuing,” continued to In 1984 in all ages, “this is Spinal Tap,” It opened to only $ 1.67 million on 1920 locally during the weekend. It fell on a number nine on the plans in general. That was made to a height of $ 872 per screen. Unfortunately for Bleecker and Spinal Tap, this is floundering as the theatrical stirring. It was slightly defeated by release “The Voice of Music”, which achieved $ 1.6 million.

Aside from “Demon Slayer”, the other new arrivals included “Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale” ($ 18.1 million) and “The Long Walk” ($ 11.5 million). Then there was “The Conjuring: Last Rites” ($ 25.6 million), Which was launched on a record weekend for a horror movie. Not to mention the release of the “Pixar game” ($ 3.5 million). Found everything very small to breathe “Spinal Tap II”, unfortunately.

The 41 -year -old continues after the release of “This Spinal Tho”, which focuses on the colleagues of the David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tuffle, and Derek Smalls (Michael Mckean, Christopher, and Shearer, who were forced to Rehawnite for one final party. Rob Riner has returned to follow -up, in addition to reactivating his role as a fake director Marti Dbergi.

Although it may be painful to say that, the inability of this film to attract a box office is not surprising. In recent years, comedy has been a much greater draw in the world of flow, With movies such as Vince Vaughn’s “Nonnas” Finding Carge Guities on Netflix. Throughout the time, theatrical comedy was struggling strongly during the era of the epidemic, as ROM -coms only became like “anyone but you” ($ 220 million around the world) or “the lost city” ($ 193 million worldwide) became reliable, for the largest part.

Over the past few years, we have seen films like “Strays” ($ 36 million worldwide), “Joy Ride” ($ 15 million worldwide), and other proud. There are rare surprises, such as “one day of them days” ($ 52 million worldwide) earlier this year. The “The Naked Gun” has also achieved $ 101 million so far, and has become a modest success for the budget of more than $ 40 million.

In this case, though, it was always an arduous battle. For one, “This is the spinal tap,” is a popular comedyBut it is still a suitable movie, with less than $ 6 million worldwide during his life. Even if we set aside the comedy struggles during the era of the epidemic, the long comedy sequences often delayed a difficult time. “Zoolander 2” ($ 56 million worldwide) is a major example. The couple is that with the fact that Bleecker Street does not have a major studio resources to market the movie, not to mention the Amal in the competition this weekend, and that you have largely left a scenario without victory.

The good news for all those concerned is that “SPINAL TAP II” has a budget of $ 22 million. Between any box office abroad, there, VOD/final broadcasting revenues, Blu-ray sales, and even renewed interest in the original film, is likely to recover his money in the end-or at least, at least, don’t lose much. It is a shameful thing to be another tile in the wall indicating Hollywood as a whole that the comedy made for the large screen is no longer working anymore.

“Spinal Tap II: The End” is now in theaters.
