USA box office on the 4th weekend of 2017-2025

 
USA box office on the 4th weekend of 2025 is up 20% compared to last year when "Mean Girlswas the top-grossing movie.  Mel Gibson's poorly reviewed, unenthusiastically received "Flight Risk" is this weekend's top-grossing film.  (That's how bad things are in "Hollywood" now.)

But it's down 40% compared to the peak year of 2018, when "Maze Runner: The Death Cure" ruled the box office.

So far, the overall box office is improving on 2024 with ticket sales up 10.9% from the same point a year ago, according to Comscore. After the pandemic and two union strikes wreaked havoc on the box office, Hollywood is looking to 2025 for a rebound in fortunes. The winter doldrums are expected to pick up with Marvel’s “Captain America: Brave New World” on Feb 14, followed by Disney’s “Snow White” on March 21 and “Minecraft” on April 4.
