US box office top 5 weekend breakdown 6th - 8th May 2022

Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness

As Marvel movies tend to do these days Doctor Strange 2 has entered the box office at the top, and although its not a record breaking entry it is a danm good one.

The movie took an amazing $90 Million (including previews) on Friday alone and went on to take $185 Million by the end of the weekend.

The only movie to have done better in recent times is its spiritual predecessor Spider-Man: No Way Home.

The movie took a massive 85% of this weeks North American box office total taking, and it is already 3rd top movie of 2022.

The Bad Guys

After spending a couple of weeks at the top the animated feature falls to number 2 this weekend with a gross of $9.7 Million, down 40% over last weekend.

This gives the movie a total US gross of $57.5 Million after 3 weeks of release.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

The video game adaption falls to number 3 this weekend with $6.2 Million, a 46% drop over last weekend.

This gives the movie a total US gross of $169.9 Million after 5 weeks of release and its the 4th top movie of 2022.

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

This third in the Fantastic Beasts series falls to number 4 this weekend with $3.9 Million, a big 52% drop over last weekend.

This gives the movie a total North American gross of just $86 Million after 4 weeks of release, and with the movie being considered a flop the question must be asked as to the continuation of the series, it was supposed to be a 5 movie series!

The movie is the 7th top film of 2022 so far.

Everything Everywhere All At Once

The surprise hit of the spring holds its position at number 5 this weekend as the Michelle Yeoh starring movie takes $3.3 Million on its 7th weekend of release, a 40% drop over last weekend.

The movie has now taken an incredible $41 Million over its box office run, amazing when you think it started as a small independent movie in a handful of cinemas and has grown in critical response and will be a cult classic going forward.

This weeks new releases didn't make too much of an impact on the UK box office as Sonic the Hedgehog 2 goes back to the top as Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore doesn't perform as well as expected.

Highest new movie of the weekend is the Nicholas Cage parody movie The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent which can only manage an entry at 7 with £516,697 while FirebirdHappening is at 14 with £27,702 and finally Jersey enters at 15 with £23,830.

UK box office QuickView

  • Number 1 - Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2nd weekend - non consecutive)
  • Highest debut - The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (@7)
  • Longest run - The Batman (8 weeks)
  • Highest total gross - The Batman (£40 Million)

UK box office top 5 weekend breakdown 15th - 18th April 2022

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

This weekends new releases and the bad performance of Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore has given the video game adaptation a chance to go back to the top of the box office and a couple of weeks at number 2 and 3.

The movie took £1.6 Million over the weekend to go back to the top, only a 20% drop over last weekend, which gives it a total gross of £20.2 Million over 4 weeks of release.

It is performing better than Sonic the Hedgehog which at this stage in its run has taken £18 Million, and the movie is the 5th top film of 2022.

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

The third movie in the Fantastic Beasts series is not performing as well as expected and this weekend remains at number 2 with £1.6 Million, a 40% drop over last weekend.

The movie has taken £16.4 Million in the UK which is well below the previous 2 movies, it is currently the 6th top movie of 2022 in the UK.

The Lost City

Falling to number 3 after a single week at the top where it debuted last weekend the action comedy from directors Adam and Aaron Nee takes £1.3 Million this week, a 50% drop, for a total of £5.6 Million.

Operation Mincemeat

Director John Madden's war drama jumps up to number 4 this weekend from its debut of 5 last weekend with £758,698, a small 15% drop, giving the film a £2.6 Million total after 2 weeks of release.

The Bad Guys

The first trailer and a new poster has been released for upcoming movie Bullet Train which can seen below.

The trailer is just bonkers, and were not too sure what is happening, but you just have to see this and then hope that July 15th comes quicker than normal, simply put, we can't wait to see this movie!

  • The movie is due for release on 15th July 2022
  • It stars among others Brad Pitt and Zazie Beetz
  • It is directed by David Leitch
  • Brad Pitt and Zazie Beetz appeared together in Deadpool 2

Check out the Salty Popcorn movie page for more information on this upcoming film.

Sony and Marvel have released a new, much anticipated, trailer for the new Spider-Man movie, and it has plenty of multiverse villains, but only one Spider-Man!

The trailer gives more hints to the story, but still leaves many, many question to what is going on.

It looks like there is still only one Spider-Man in the trailer, although there are many quick shots where its hard to see what is happening, but what is clear is Doctor Octopus played by Alfred Molina plays a large part in the movie.

We also get to see Jamie Foxx and Thomas Haden Church as Electro and Sand Man, but although we get a clearer picture of Green Goblin its not revealed who is playing the villain.

There are many many hints about universes coming together, and if Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield are not in the movie then if nothing else its a missed opportunity.

The end shot of the trailer which features Spider-Man and Zendaya's character MJ in a life and death situation is very reminiscent of the end of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 which starred Andrew Garfield as the web-slinger and Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy.

Spider-Man: No Way Home is released in the UK on 15th December 2021 and in the US on 17th December.
