YIKES. Global total is same as opening weekend of 28 years later.

Just praying this doesn’t kill the sequel ideas with Cillian Murphy.

Darn this is 100% gonna be <$100M WW. Ik they’re still making the sequel, but I still fear about this franchise.

Nobody can expect a sequel to have been as popular as the orginal, regardless of its quality.

>$31.2M worldwide
It’s predecessor made 30 million with domestic opening alone. Yikes.

Best thing it can do now, is pass 100M+ globally.

It’ll be very interesting in the second week can the great reviews possible word of mouth carry this film. I think it can make 100 mil but might make less than the previous film. Great movie hopefully legs can save it.
For the first time in January we will not have a box office of 100M

I preordered the blu ray steel book in France 35€ ! They will win money with physical formats too

The first one was hyped after almost 20 years since the last one, (or almost 25 years depending on who you ask).
The first Years movie was divisive and it’s only 7 months since it came out.
It’s not all doom and gloom… I think this movie will have better legs and be successful VOD.

Bone temple is like the opposite of its prequel. Everything except the very last minutes was trash.

Fuck such an up and down last month or so for the BO

Unless legs show serious signs of life, which is very very possible, then Part 3 is dead. What justification would they possibly have to make it?

Watched it twice this week. First a 28 Years Later Double-feature on Tuesday then The Bone Temple in HDR By Barco at Superscreen, Leicester Square yesterday. The HDR and Dolby Atmos elevated my experience considerably over watching it on a standard but massive scope screen.

Watched the first part without knowing it was split into more films, and was very surprised how it was practically an experimental artistic film… I also remember it was very boring until Ralph Fiennes showed up, which is unforgivable.
Not surprised at all the sequel isn’t doing well.

Cancel the third one ASAP. We don’t need that old twink return.

Paying for the sins of the previous movie.

I totally forgot about this movie, so I didn’t even know this was out until my friend asked me if i was interested to watch it with her last Friday. I watched 28 Years Later with her last year as well… and she admitted to me that she didn’t know that there was a continuation and even more surprised that it was out this soon. I have not seen a single ad for Bone Temple even until now, unlike with 28YL… I think marketing hasn’t been great and a lot of 28YL viewers didn’t know that there is a 2nd part (e.g. me responding to [a 28YL post/rant 6 months ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/malaysians/s/bMiOwOLJLh) in which the OP also didn’t know about Bone Temple)

That really sucks- I thoroughly enjoyed this film & wanted Nia to get a win $ wise but I’m glad it’s gotten mostly good reviews. I am honestly planning to see it again in theaters and/or buy on VOD!

Yup, will fall short of $100M worldwide. As I called.

Where are the “if it was good, it would have made money” crowd?

I like it. Fines is pretty great in it and it’s got some… well moments.
It’s a very cerebral/contemplative horror, which is probably going to have limited box office upside, especially during a slow release window. It can only trade on the ’28 brand so much, although its CinemaScore suggests people who actually get out to see it aren’t rejecting it.

Damn almost 50% lower than Part 1.
