Theater Averages: Skating Madeline

August 16, 2018

Skate Kitchen

Skate Kitchen and Madeline’s Madeline had nearly identical openings earning $18,605 and $18,009 respectively. Both films were playing in only one theater a piece. The only other film in the $10,000 club was The Meg at $11,025.

There were not many other new limited releases to talk about. The Island did the best earning an average of $6,585 in 40 theaters. It has room to expand. On the other hand, BuyBust struggled with an average of $3,118 in 25 theaters. Finally, Cuban Food Stories only manged $3,032 in its lone theater.

This past week also saw milestones reached for a couple of Per Theater Chart alumni:

  • Eighth Grade made it to $7.5 million before the weekend and $10 million over the weekend. $15 million isn’t entirely out of reach, but it also isn’t very likely.
  • Sorry to Bother You topped $15 million before the weekend, while it is unlikely it will get to $20 million.
