There’s no sugarcoating this, 28YL has less box office revenue with each update

Sub-$100M worldwide finish is likely

Wolf Man grossed 12.3m over MLK weekend last year. To give some context how poorly Bone Temple is doing.

I was hoping for legs since the really positive word of mouth and no real major horror competition til Scream 7 in 5 weeks but.. seeing the weekend daily drops just tell me it won’t happen. Hell man it’s a fantastic movie and I need Part III Injected in me

I think the previous film made this tank. It just rubbed a lot of people the wrong way, listen though it was production wise a solid film but I didn’t like it too much so had no reason to watch this one.

Bone Temple’s 3-day is lower than Morbius’ 1st Saturday: $13.1 million.

As good as the first 2 installments were, seems like such a baffling decision to have made this a trilogy. The 3rd installment with *that* character coming back is the movie everyone wanted. Why cram it behind 2 other films that will likely feel unrelated…

I thought 28 Years Later was a snooze. Is Bone Temple better?

Not good. Hope it can leg out to break even. Really is a great, great, great zombie flick.

If Rothman continues with Part 3, I’ll never criticise him again. lmao.
My logical expectation is that he won’t.

Gonna echo others and say it’s paying fot 28YL feeling like a rug pull so now you only really have the ppl who liked it coming back. But after seeing it, I think it’s also hurting that it’s a bit weaker than 28YL and it feels like 2 movies sharing the same runtime isn’t helping.

An absolutely awful first film of the trilogy will do that.

I saw it early afternoon Sunday, the screening was nearly empty and one guy walked out pretty early.
I liked both 28 Year films and am glad Sony had faith in Boyle/DaCosta/Garland etc but damn these are not connecting and the sixth month sequel thing was probably a mistake. Heck planning it as a trilogy rather than doing one and seeing how it goes was probably a mistake.
I’m a bit surprised to see some of the “Bone Temple is a great film suffering because of the first film” because I think people who disliked the tonal whiplash and slower scenes of that aren’t going to love Bone Temple either.

Geez… it went lower then expected for The Bon Temple that doesn’t seem to be good for the 3rd 28 Years Later and it’s 4 day weekend is even half less then 28 Years Later opening of $30M

What a shame. It’s a fantastic movie and I feel like it retroactively makes the first one better. It’s so well crafted, it’s impressive how it manages to stay emotionally grounded and real, even though the story revolves entirely around characters that could’ve so easily become caricatures.
I liked 28YE, but was kinda ambivalent about the sequels – now I’m very excited for the third one. I hope it still gets made.

It really sucks when great movies fail like this.

That’s such a shame because it’s actually very good, and will most certainly go down as a bit of a cult favourite

Even lower than estimates…, even 100M globally might not happen now.
