Last year, the Christmas box office was a big bummer. While James Cameron's Avatar: The Way Of Water had a nice second weekend, it and Joel Crawford's Puss In Boots: The Last Wish were the only films to bring in eight figures domestically. Now, the results are in for the holiday in 2023, and while there is a bright spot to be found in the fact that there are three features that earned eight figures in the last three days, the landscape is arguably even bleaker than what we saw in 2022.
Despite there being plenty of new releases to choose from – including James Wan's Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom, Benjamin Renner's Migration, Will Gluck's Anyone But You, and Sean Durkin's The Iron Claw – none of them made a particularly big splash in the last few days. Check out the full Top 10 below and join me after for analysis.
