When it comes to watching what has hit and missed among 2025 movie releases, it does feel like this year at the box office has continued to show a bigger tide shift among moviegoers than what we might have seen five to ten years ago. For one, a Marvel movie has yet to make cross $500 million worldwide. A Minecraft Movie gave the video game adaptation trend another huge box office hit. Oh, and a movie that was readily available on Netflix, KPop Demon Hunters, was the No. 1 movie last weekend. And, following a new study’s findings, Gen Alpha can explain this shift to some degree.
