Box Office November 1-3, 2019
Terminator: Dark Fate premiered in Number One spot at the box office over the weekend with $29 Million. With the Terminator name, cast, and filmography, many hoped (and projected) that Terminator: Date Fate would open far better than a mid-level action film with no film history. It seems that people are really tired of the same old tropes recycled with better effects but with worse and worse scripts in each incarnation. Joker was Second at the box office over the weekend with $13.9 Million for $299.6 Million. Worldwide, Joker has made $934 Million so far. Joker has been in-theaters for five weeks and has not left the top five films during its run. In fact, Joker has not been out of the top three films since the film was released on October 4, 2019.
