The Memorial Day box office is cruising for a two-decade low. “Furiosa,” the Mad Max prequel starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, claimed the first place spot for Friday-Saturday-Sunday with $25.6 million.

tl;dr Furiosa’s $25 million opening was lower than the expected $40 million that its predecessor Fury Road opened with. Could lose money on its $168 million budget.

Lower budgeted family friendly Garfield well on its way to profit on its reported $60 million budget.

    I saw it Saturday and there were maybe 8 others in the theater at a 6pm showing.

    Movie was mediocre at best. I hated that so much green screen and CGI was used for the car battles. Story was lacking as well. Characters went nowhere.

      mediocre!

      my favorite part was how they showed scenes from Fury Road at the end to remind you about how this is related to an outstanding film.
