Not terrible but definitely surprisingly low considering the overall good reception of both this and especially the original.

they were probably expecting more, Seachlight has become nothing but a Hulu content provider in recent years

Yikes are they even gonna make any money after paying for advertising? Maybe it should’ve been a Hulu original

The budget is under 20 million and it still hasn’t opened in a bunch of countries, it’s gonna be fine

Could’ve been worse, but still a little surprising because most of the reviews so far have been solid and the first one was a major hit

Hopefully it doesn’t have too massive of a week 2 dropoff. I know that I personally plan to see it this week but wanted to see Project Hail Mary first

Ready or Not 2 + Scream 7 + Undertone combine for horror’s 4th straight $17MM+ weekend

They waited too long to do a sequel.

This movie released here in Brazil on Thursday, I was planning on watching it this weekend and on the next weekend Project Hail Mary, but almost all screenings for Ready or Not 2 were dubbed, and I wanted to watch in its original language, so I went with Project Hail Mary yesterday, which was a blast.
If theaters add more screenings in its original language for Ready or Not 2 next weekend, I’ll for sure watch it tho.
Project Hail Mary had a good balance between dubbed and original language screenings here, while Ready or Not 2 was more than 80% dubbed screenings.
This doesn’t makes sense to me because here in Brazil, PHM had the rating equivalent of PG-13, while RoN2 received the equivalent of a R rating.

Not horrible for a $14M costed horror sequel, but this should’ve been out way earlier after the first.

Likely the biggest movie of the decade to have david cronenbergs involvement in any capacity

I’m so disappointed by the underperformance… Hopefully legs are good :/

a shame it missed 10m.. hopefully it’s able to leg out a bit? kinda underwhelming though as I hoped Radio Silence + some of the cast would have some more pull to push the #s up (esp with the horror crowd.. even if this was sort of an unlucky release weekend too I guess)

I’ll never understand why they’ll make a sequel to a 7-year old movie that despite doing well has had no cultural impact in pop culture and even the general public, no wonder this movie did as badly as it did. Luckily, it didn’t cost too much to make but still not sure it would even make it’s money back.

as someone who loved both of these, this is pretty disappointing to me. the first one has such goodwill and built upon a strong base (or so i thought), so the fact that it barely did better than the 1st one to me is pretty surprising, even with the competition.
the movie actually wasn’t really “more of the same” as the first (obviously the general plot of her trying to survive was, but it was still its own thing), so maybe the marketing also let it down because that wasn’t conveyed as much as it should have been. the marketing/trailer felt more of like “this is literally the 1st one all over again” while it really wasn’t. it was a lot of fun

This is so sad. There were barely any promotion and the release date was not optimal.

7 year wait definitely hurt

Yeesh, lower than the first film’s entire 5-day opening even despite having more theaters and only slightly above its opening weekend. Feels like Radio Silence just can’t catch a break after turning down the offer for Scream 7, and not to mention that 7 years is a long time for most folks who saw the first film in 2019.

Probably will have good legs the upcoming weekdays the Friday-Saturday hold was quite good
