Weekend Box Office (02-25-24): 'Bob Marley' Tops As 'Drive-Away Dolls' Flops
'Anyone But You' passed $200 million worldwide as 'Tenet' returned to Imax
Whatever spice will flow at the domestic box office will have to wait until next weekend, as this slow frame was essentially the calm before the sandstorm. This weekend, with few big releases and the year’s first tentpole just about to open, would have been a great weekend to hold the Academy Awards. Just saying. In this weekend's box office report, beyond just the numbers, we will discuss…
- How Bob Marley: One Love compares to recent music biopics
- The unique career of Hillary Swank as a movie star
- The appeal (for actors) of Veggie Tales-style faith-based dramas
- Why superhero and franchise films dominate the discourse even when they fail
- The sad, inevitable fate of Drive-Away Dolls
- The grim irony of Demon Slayer and Tenet still being called upon to save theaters
And much more!
