Deadline won't have the huevos to do a Most Valuable Blockbuster list this year but Venom 2 would be at or near the top.

A Quiet Place Part 2 would like a word.

$297 million global on a $61 million budget.

For the first time in modern history, October is the highest-grossing month of the year at the domestic box office.

 

Thanks to Sony’s comic book adventure “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” MGM’s James Bond sequel “No Time to Die,” Universal’s “Halloween Kills” and the Warner Bros. and Legendary tentpole “Dune,” the season that celebrates all things spooky and pumpkin spice has been livelier than most at local multiplexes. Through the 31st, October has generated $637 million in the U.S. and Canada, according to Comscore. Those ticket sales were enough to surpass July and its $583 million haul to become the biggest revenue-generating month of 2021.

 

The milestone isn’t completely surprising because it coincides with the first time since the onset of COVID-19 that Hollywood studios have kept release dates for blockbuster-hopefuls. Through the first half of the year, most big-budgeted movies were regularly delayed and rescheduled, leaving October slated with more major films than usual. Still, it’s a positive indication that the movie theater industry has the potential to rebound after COVID-19 devastated the business.

was my other thought but based on simplistic 50 US/40 Int'l/25 China split, Venom more $ profits (tossing aside P&A and ancillaries); moot point because i'd be shocked if Deadline (aka NATO cheerleading squad) does a list this year

Pretty impressive that Venom 2 is looking to do about what Venom 1 did (domestically) and it did it during COVID.  They made them for pretty much the same budget and matched the 1st in ticket sales.  Has to be seen as a success which will hopefully spawn more of these feel good fluff comic type movies.

Sony’s Venom: Let There Be Carnage has crossed the $400M worldwide mark, grossing $191.6M domestically and $212.5M at the international box office for a $404.1M cume through Tuesday. This makes the Andy Serkis-directed sequel the fifth Hollywood movie to top the four-century worldwide milestone since the beginning of the pandemic — and it still has major markets to come.

 

The Tom Hardy-starrer has been on a rampage ever since it debuted domestically on October 1, going on to a $90.1M opening weekend which is the second best ever for the month of October.

 

Overseas that same weekend, Let There Be Carnage went out early with Russia devouring a $13.8M start— the market’s best debut of any film during the health crisis, and Sony’s biggest opening ever there. The current Russia gross is $31.4M, making Venom 2 the No. 8 film of all time.

Of course, when I said spoilers I meant spoilers to Venom 2's actual story, which still nobody really cares about. We went to see Venom 2 to see Venom swing around and fight Carnage and didn't really care how it would end. Obviously the "no spoilers" marketing poster referred to the surprise credit scene.

I love your disclaimers.
