Minecraft vs Sinners: A Mystical Box Office Duel or Just a Cosmic Accident?
about the celestial tussle between Minecraft and Sinners for box office supremacy this Easter weekend? Well, in the realm of astrology, Easter is known for new beginings, Now, with the moon in Aries, expect all fiery, impulsive decisions and some serious competition for the box-office opening weekend, pretty fitting, huh?
Here’s the deal: While I was scribbling about the stars and their alignment this weekend, I couldn’t help but laugh at the thought that the Aries energy might be steering us towards some heated drama at the theaters. Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, despite buzzing, isn’t set to demolish A Minecraft Movie. Indeed, a slight underperformance, but hey, with that kind of reception, you’re still a sweet Aries punch to our entertainment-loving minds!
Minecraft and Sinners – both vyein’ for top spots in this celestial showdown. Warner Bros., cradling their own this holiday weekend, must feel like they’re hosting the cosmic equivalent of a Super Bowl. And guess what? We predicted a bit of a curveball in our numbers, but it looks like Minecraft’s gonna reign, pulling in a cool $45 million. Not too shabby, is it?
Let’s not forget King of Kings, having a divine intervention over Easter with barely a dip from last week. Then there’s The Amateur, starring Rami Malek, which is holding its breath with the air of suspense. Plus, Warfare from A24 isn’t bowing out, proving some movies are like Taurus – stubborn and resolute.
And oh! Pride and Prejudice is back, celebrating 20 years on the big screen – might not be in the horoscope, but it’s out there, getting love from the cosmos or just from fans like us.
So, my stargazers, what are your astral plans for the big screen this Easter? Let’s catch what the stars have beckoned below in the comments! LEARN MORE about this astrological showdown at the box office!
While Ryan Coogler’s Sinners is on the receiving end of great reviews (including our own) and word-of-mouth, it looks like our prediction that the film would over-index this weekend and beat A Minecraft Movie to take the top spot over Easter Weekend isn’t coming true. According to Deadline, Sinners is on track to gross $40 million, compared to A Minecraft Movie’s $45 million. It’s a rare double whammy for Warner Bros, who own the top spots this holiday weekend. That’s a huge turnaround given how dire their box office situation was just a month ago. Given that Sinners cost in the $100 million range, that’s a very decent start for a movie that should hopefully leg out to consistent business in the weeks ahead. However, it can’t be denied that with the rapturous critical reception, the opening might be a little underwhelming.
Otherwise, Angel Studios’ King of Kings is playing well over the easter holiday, with it looking to only drop about 6% from last week for a $17.5 million weekend, and a $45 million total. It’s already Angel’s second-highest-grossing movie after Sound of Freedom. The Rami Malek vehicle, The Amateur, also had a decent hold, with it looking like it will fall under 50% to a $7.5 million weekend. It should leg out to about $45 million or so at the box office, which isn’t bad for a low-key thriller like this one. A24’s Warfare also showed some staying power, with it looking like it will make about $4.65 million for the weekend with a $17 million total.
Further down the chart, Focus Features’s 20th anniversary re-release of Pride and Prejudice is performing well, with it on track for about a $2.6 million weekend on only about 1300 screens.
