Blue Beetle is unable to dislodge Barbenheimer from the box office throne

In the United States, Blue Beetle ended Barbie’s dominance at the box office. This past weekend, Dutch moviegoers were noticeably less enthusiastic about the superhero film, which debuted here at number four.

Four weeks later, Barbie is no longer the most successful movie in the United States. DC’s superhero film Blue Beetle took the box office crown there with a weekend total of $25.4 million. Barbie was supposed to receive 21.5 million dollars a month after the premiere. In the Netherlands, Barbie continues to be incredibly popular, and last weekend (from Thursday to Saturday) it finally took first place in FDN’s box office chart. Although the film had attracted more visitors in the past four weeks, higher revenues from premium formats (IMAX and Dolby Cinema) ensured that Oppenheimer would get more money.

It is noteworthy that the receipts between the two films are also not far apart in the fifth week. Barbie collected more than 1.038 million euros last weekend and Oppenheimer more than 1.032 million. The difference in revenue compared to the rest of the graph is significant. For example, Meg 2: the Trench, number three on the list, had to settle for more than €350,000, and Blue Beetle’s highest-grossing new entry has collected more than €277,000.

The latest FDN chart contains seven newcomers. The highest was the blue beetle (4). Additionally, Talk to Me (6), Metallica M72 World Tour Live from TX Nigh (11), How To Blow Up a Pipeline (20), Back on the Strip (24), Tengo Suenos Electricos (26) and 4K Remaster Ghost Dog : Way of the Samurai (27).

A number of interesting films are scheduled to be released in the coming months. August ends with Take That Greatest Days, after which moviegoers can look forward to My Big Fat Grek Wedding 3, Sisu, After All, A Hunt in Venice, Line of Fire, Retrubution, and The Three Musketeers: D’Artgnan in September. , among others. The question is whether any of these films can end Barpenheimer’s dominance at the box office.
