Scooby doo 2 monsters unleashed5/16/2023 There was only one new opening, but it was in Italy, one of the most staunchly Catholic nations. What is a surprise is the amount just $26 million is barely an increase from last weekend. It was hardly a surprise that The Passion of the Christ was able to take top spot over Easter weekend. I do believe the $25 million is for the whole week while the $14.6 million is for the weekend. $14.6 or $25 is the two prevailing estimates I've found.

A strong home market will be needed before Universal sees a profit. and the final cost is nearing $250 million. Combine the production budget, domestic P&A budgets, translations / dubbing / subtitles, etc. And while a $107 million opening weekend seems spectacular, this is a very expensive film to get to theatres. Some highlights were the $9.9 million in the U.K. Not only was that easily the largest box office this weekend, but it was the best we've seen this year. In addition to the $51.7 million Van Helsing earned at the domestic box office, the monster movie made $55.3 million on 5,254 screens in 41 markets internationally.
