Box Office: 'Godzilla vs. Kong' Sets Pandemic Record With $48.5 Million Debut

LOS ANGELES, -“Godzilla vs. Kong” muscled its way to a pandemic-era box office record, giving Hollywood studios and theater owners alike hope that people are ready to return to the movies after a year of watching Netflix at home.

The results for “Godzilla vs. Kong” are especially impressive because the film is also available to HBO Max subscribers for no extra fee. It’s unclear how many people have streamed the movie. “While it’s half of what it would be under normal circumstances, the weekend is a clear and positive indication that moviegoing has inherent strengths that aren’t going away,” he said.

“Godzilla vs. Kong” wasn’t this weekend’s only new release. Sony Pictures’ horror film “The Unholy” pulled in $3.2 million from 1,850 locations, a modest start for the low-budget movie. It narrowly beat out Universal’s action thriller “Nobody” for third place on box office charts. “Nobody,” starring Bob Odenkirk as a mild-mannered father-turned-vigilante, earned $3 million in its second weekend, boosting its domestic tally to $11.8 million.

We’re all gonna die because people can’t wait to see a movie about a giant gorilla fighting a giant lizard. Cool cool cool.

China just made a crapload more money...

I can’t wait. Going to the cinema is one of my favourite things to do.

Looks boring. 🥱

This movie was trash. There can only be one king of the apex predators. They made up and became friends? How mf 2021 can we get ?

thanks

Funny number......many cinemas are still closed or partly available.....and its so easy nowadays to watch movies 'at home'.

And it's a snooze fest. Goes to show that boredom will make you watch anything to pass the time.

I'm sure we'll beat that during the next pandemic.
