They're only projecting $28 mil for Tomb Raider, but that might be enough to knock Black Panther out. It could be close.This upcoming weekend last year included the gargantuan $174.75 million launch of Beauty and the Beast.
This year's crop of new releases -- Love, Simon, Tomb Raider and something I don't know much about called I Can Only Imagine -- combined would not get anywhere near that number. Of course, Black Panther will still be doing lots of business, too, but it will be in its fifth weekend so can't be expected to be enormous anymore.
So....how much lower do you all think this weekend will be over the same weekend last year? I expect the dropoff will be massive, and without being too mean-spirited about it, I can't wait to see what the number is.
