Bond makes $7m in uk.
More than 30,000 people attended midnight screenings in the UK and Ireland on Wednesday night. No Time To Die sold a spectacular 1.62M advance tickets for the opening four days, surpassing Spectre’s total advance bookings by over 12% and performing in line with Skyfall at the same time pre-release.https://deadline.com/2021/09/no-time...nd-1234847227/While industry projections factored a roughly $90M opening frame for No Time To Die, some think the Aston Martin could speed past that number. As a reminder, in like-for-like markets at today’s exchange rates, 2015’s Spectre did $123.5M; 2012’s Skyfall came in at $109.2M; and, more recently, Universal’s latest Fast & Furious franchise entry F9 did $69.5M.

Very good news for theatrical box office.

Eh, we'll see. No doubt it will do really well but Shang-Chi was something special for a lot of people....and long term like total gross? No way, there are just too many films in the coming weeks that will eat up Venom's audience while Shang Chi didn't have nearly as much competition.

Venom did great today. $20m to 30m? Film looks to make $60m this weekend.
Addams vod hurting it's box office. Note a 11 critic rt score but 86 aud score! Even with it's vod still expected to make $14m.Friday Afternoon Update: The opening day of Sony’s Venom: Let There Be Carnage will definitely be one for the record books. After seeing a bulk of walk-up business last night as well as strong advance ticket sales, the pic is looking at a Friday definitely in the high $20Ms on its way to $30M. This includes last night’s $11.6M previews, which saw a strong turnout from Latino and Hispanic moviegoers at 25% and PLF and Imax ticket sales repping 32% of Thursday’s business. This all speaks to those who are returning to cinemas for big event pics during the pandemic are splurging. This should easily put Venom 2 in the mid-to-high $60M range for the weekend. I will say that rival studios have it higher. Any conservative projections here stem from the unpredictable nature of Saturday night business during the pandemic and how front-loaded Venom 2 might be. Obviously, the hot word of mouth from Monday’s fan screening at Universal Citywalk is spreading: California repped 24% of last night’s ticket sales for the Tom Hardy produced, story by and starring Marvel sequel. Sony is really respecting the theatrical window here with Venom 2: I hear the movie is on a window that far exceeds 45 days. Rotten Tomatoes is up to 60% fresh now.
No word on spirited away.

MGM/UAR/Bron Creative’s The Addams Family 2 will take the No. 2 spot with a $4.5M Friday (including last night’s previews) and weekend that’s at $14M-$16M booked at 4,207 theaters in the No. 2 spot. As we told, the movie is available in homes for $19.99 as a 48-hour PVOD rental. Rotten Tomatoes is at 22%, but it’s a kids’ movie, and they don’t care about critics.
Warner Bros.’ The Sopranos prequel The Many Saints of Newark at 3,181 theaters is seeing between $2.5M-$3M on its way to third with $7M. Many theaters aren’t starting showtimes until 3pm. The pic, a spinoff of the award-winning HBO series, is also available on HBO Max. Among the wide releases, the pic has the best reviews at 76% fresh on RT.
Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings at 3,455 theaters is seeing a fifth Friday of $1.7M, -52%, and a weekend of $6.5M, -50%, for a running total by EOD Sunday of $206.5M. It’s the only major studio movie at the domestic box office to reach that level, but there’s more competition yet to come this month.

Tolstoy will live forever. Some people do. But that's not enough. It's not the length of a life that matters, just the depth of it. The chances we take. The paths we choose. How we go on when our hearts break. Hearts always break and so we bend with our hearts. And we sway. But in the end what matters is that we loved... and lived.

Not sure if you are talking about domestic or worldwide? The points you bring up are certainly a factor regarding the domestic total. I still believe the box office proved robust enough to have more than one big movie playing successfully at the same time. And it looks like the opening weekend will be really big, the 60 million projections seem too low, instead it could become the biggest opening weekend of the year so far. And with an 80 million+ opening a total of 200 million+ is pretty much locked for a theater exclusive title if audiences don't wind up hating it, which doesn't seem to be the case here. My guess is that the domestic totals of Venom 2 and Shang-Chi will not be far apart.

Venom after the first movie maybe, but when has Carnage ever been in a movie before this? Comic books count for nothing, because their readership is very small when compared with the number of butts you need in the seats for movies to do big box office totals. Shang-Chi was an unknown, too. It's not because of the comics that audiences went to see it--it's because Disney managed to hit the right demographic for that movie to do well.
