Ryan Coogler's new movie Sinners continues to defy box office predictions...
From The Wrap
Warner Bros.’ “Sinners” has become a can’t-miss film, and the box office numbers show it. After earning a strong $48 million opening weekend, Ryan Coogler’s original horror film is holding its second weekend drop to a breathtaking 8% as industry estimates are projecting a $44 million total.
Exhibitor sources tell TheWrap that despite being in theaters for a week, sold out screenings for premium formats are being reported in Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta and San Francisco. For Warner Bros., this is their best second weekend hold since their 2018 hit romcom “Crazy Rich Asians,” which opened to $26.5 million and then dropped just 6.4% with a $24.8 million second weekend.
The film is now on pace to become the first original film since Disney/Pixar’s “Coco” eight years ago to gross $200 million domestic with an industry estimated $121 million total through Sunday. Since its release, “Sinners” has enjoyed a level of critical and audience acclaim rarely seen for any film, let alone for an original horror offering, and has been drawing in moviegoers who weren’t all aware of the film’s existence prior to its release.

I want to know where that hating arse Variety reviewer who wrote that article making light of the movie grossing over 60 million dollars opening weekend because it cost 90 million to make. I'll wait.
Somebody called it a flop smh but I’m going to see it today. Tickets are hard to come by in my city. The shows are selling out
The movie is excellent.
Saw it last night. It, was a great well told story, shot perfectly. Excellent performances all around by the cast.
Definitely worth a trip to the theater❣️
Yes go see it! It is a masterpiece and while they don’t need validation from HW, coogler, Delroy, and Michale better be nominated. I’m not even into vampire stuff but this story is so much deeper than just vampires. Blk and beautiful…made by a true artist.
I love to hear about out success
