‘Venom 2’ smashes pandemic box office record; ‘No Time to Die’ soars overseas
LA Times“Venom: Let There Be Carnage” — the highly anticipated sequel to Marvel and Sony Pictures’ irreverent antihero origin story — devoured its prey at the North American box office this weekend, debuting at $90.1 million, according to estimates from measurement firm ComScore. The second installment in the “Venom” franchise also surpassed its predecessor’s massive debut haul of $80 million, which set an October opening weekend record at the domestic box office in 2018. “As a studio, our patience and strategy with our big IP paid off.” Movies ‘Venom’ latest hit to trump bad reviews with great box office, while ‘A Star Is Born’ soars into second spot Scathing critical reviews have had little bearing on film performance these days as movies with poor Rotten Tomatoes scores have found major success at the box office. Securing second place this weekend at the North American box office is United Artists Releasing’s animated comedy “The Addams Family 2,” which collected $18 million.
