USA box office on Christmas weekend of December (2017-2023)

 
USA box office on the fourth weekend of November 2023 is down 4% compared to last year when "Avatar: The Way of Water" was the top-grossing movie.  

And it's down 63% compared to the 2018 peak when "Star Wars: Episode IX" was the top draw.

“Wonka,” a family-friendly look at how Willy Wonka broke into the confection game, topped the box office on Wednesday, adding $8 million to push the film past the $100 million mark domestically. The movie’s stateside gross stands at a delicious $102.5 million. “Wonka” is also performing well overseas — its global haul of more than $270 million is a strong result for Warner Bros. and the film’s star, Timothée Chalamet.
“Migration,” Illumination and Universal’s animated adventure about a family of mallards, took second place on the charts, earning $6.3 million. The film has earned a disappointing $30.6 million domestically, but is hoping to draw ticket buyers looking for something to do with their kids over the holiday season, which could bolster its results.
