I remember reading a post or two here about a year ago saying they didn’t think this movie would do well because it would only appeal to those with nostalgia for the original. That post is probably deleted by now. In some ways this movie has succeeded like Fury Road has. A very basic story which has little to no role in the films success. Both movies were carried by its presentation, performances and some nostalgia. True popcorn flicks.

“Top Gun: Maverick” has crossed $700 million in North America, becoming one of six movies to ever surpass that milestone at the domestic box office.

 

The film returned to the top of box office charts over Labor Day weekend, adding $7.9 million between Friday and Monday and bringing ticket sales to $701 million. According to Paramount, “Maverick” is the only film to ever be No. 1 at the domestic box office for both Memorial Day and Labor Day holidays. 

 

After 15 weeks of release, the sequel to Tom Cruise’s 1986 blockbuster has overtaken Marvel’s behemoth “Black Panther” ($700.4 million) as the fifth-highest grossing movie in domestic box office history. Impressively, the “Top Gun” follow-up has long flown past “Black Panther” internationally and globally. Pete “Maverick” Mitchell’s latest mission has racked up $740 million overseas and $1.44 billion worldwide, while T’Challa’s super-heroic adventure tapped out with $674 million overseas and $1.347 billion worldwide.
