His plastic life is really fantastic. Barbie had a high-profile debut at the North American box office, grossing $155 million over the weekend. Announced as a result of an intense marketing campaign, Greta Gerwig’s spicy comedy was the best start to 2023. It’s better than the animated film. Super Mario Bros. and its 146 million visits at the beginning of April or the long-awaited sequelAvatar James Cameron and his 134 million viewers gathered last December. It’s also the best launch for a film directed by a woman since Anne Boden, co-director Captain Marvel with Ryan Fleck (153 million in 2019) and Patty Jenkins for amazing woman (103 million in 2017).
A “True Historic Weekend” for Cinemas Across the Atlantic
Never before have Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, irresistible Barbie and Ken been so successful from the start. Never before has Warner recorded such numbers for a film that isn’t a superhero movie or a sequel. “This weekend shows that there is nothing better than watching a movie in the cinema”– commented the president of the National Association of Theater Owners USA Michael O’Leary, quoted by AFP. “a truly historic weekend”. “The studios presented the audience with two different, witty and original stories made for the big screen.”he adds, according to diversity. Because at the same time Oppenheimer also attracted a large audience.
Christopher Nolan’s biopic about the father of the atomic bomb, starring Cillian Murphy, grossed $80.5 million over the weekend, the British-American director’s third-best opening after Rise of the dark knight (161 million) and The Dark Knight (158 million). Impressive rating for a 3-hour movie banned for children under 17 across the Atlantic. These numbers, provided by firms Exhibitor Relations and Comcost, have allowed darkrooms in the United States and Canada to add up to their best weekend earnings since the Covid-19 pandemic.
- Match “Barbie” – “Oppenheimer” has already stirred up the box office in France
Which also marks the fourth biggest weekend in North American cinema history after Avengers: Endgame, Avengers: Infinity War AND Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Speakers on the Internet using memes and photomontages under the name Barbenheimer, movies Barbie AND Oppenheimer eventually became the best allies of the operators. Most likely, only Tom Cruise will suffer. Already robbed of IMAX theaters by Christopher Nolan’s film, Mission Impossible 7 saw a 64% drop in second-week ticket sales in the US and Canada. Unheard of for a franchise. In France, this seventh part has already collected more than a million viewers.
