The long awaited Christopher Nolan movie Tenet Finally the U.S. Opened in, and together with the Canadian Run, which began last week, it closed at 2,810 theaters by M 20.2M to date. In all of this, time travel, the 2 1/2 hour spy thriller has devised about M 150M to date.

As movie theaters closed nationwide due to the epidemic, in particular, the top 3 major circuits, Tenet Presented as the comeback of many theaters for a long time, the tentpole that will be displayed at its feet.

There is no reference to these numbers, as they are not in your typical Labor Day weekend release. We’re just starting to realize how he’s going to open a tentpole in the world of pride, where eight of Nolan’s last films are in the top ten theaters, Dunkirk, Not open, i.e. cinemas in Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York. Even the cinemasker, who usually votes in theaters in Washington, New York and California, has earned Nolan Movie B; The director usually earns a B + or A, remember, only 65% ​​of the domestic markets are open to 25% to 40% of the auditorium capacity.

Tenet
Warner Bros.

Tenet It has a 79% Rotten Tomatoes audience score, and an 74% RT rating. The latter rating needs to be taken with a grain of salt as critics in Los Angeles and New York were not cleared in advance to watch the movie as the picture did not open in their market. Thus, media outlets in those markets had to tap freelancers to watch the film, which contained various fibers. Even advance ticket sales aren’t a clear barometer, though everyone is going ticketless in the COVID-19 era. Big Prel Hubs are closed in San Francisco, LA and NYC. Recently, Movio told us that Tenet Pressless went ahead Dunkirk And Inland area In the US, UK and Australia Australia.

Warners, starting in Canada, chose to hold an 11-day opening Tenet On the domestic b office x office fee, the task of creating traffic with this week’s early previews leads to Labor Day Weekend. That’s a solid number when you come to think of it, and the best earnings we’ve seen from today’s movie during the epidemic, more than the 10-day Disney / 20th Century studios New mutants (As of today.66.6.6m, 92.9m later in the week) and Slustis Studios Unhinged Which has been released for four weeks.

If you want to know how to open a tentpole during an epidemic without NY and LA, here is the playbook, just written by Warner Bros.; Unlike the old platforms of the 1970s where it would open up big pictures in big city markets and from there make its way to the U.S. Also, we need to keep in mind that it’s Labor Day weekend, and even though we didn’t have a summer blockbuster season, audiences are usually distracted by barbecues and beaches, etc. The drive-ins in Los Angeles were impacted by 100. Temperatures, but in places like San Diego, where the humidity was 93 degrees, created foot traffic. We heard that Tenet It was No. 1 in Canada last week, with some estimating the movie to be around 2.5M. Has become around.

Tenet The states here have done 8 2.8M out of 272 IMAX aud detours on Monday, re-launching the largest Labor Day opening of a large format exhibitor despite the closure of LA, NY and San Francisco.

Until the lead-up Tenet, Warner Bros. had some great luck reopening markets in states like Maryland, New Jersey and San Diego. There’s a chance we’ll see San Francisco reopen next week. It wasn’t uncommon to hear AMC’s San Diego Fashion Valley reopen four days after it became clear on Monday (thought the venue has been open since late June). Tenet Played on IMAX, Dolby and motion-seats. The movie runs on most screens in the average multiplex. Some of the independent chains we’ve been told are 63% rented by the studio, and that’s for the full run of the Nolan movie (12 weeks expected). Currently, Warner Bros. ‘ Wonder Woman 1984 big cut.
