Captain America: Brave New World debuted strongly, grossing $88.5 million domestically and $92.4 million internationally, amassing a total of $192 million over the weekend. While this makes it the biggest opening of the year so far, industry analysts remain cautious, noting that its longevity in theatres will depend on its second-week performance, reminiscent of the disappointing fall for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Meanwhile, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy set a new record for romcoms in the U.K. with its $14.9 million opening but will be released as a streaming exclusive in the U.S. for Valentine's Day.
If the MCU is indeed a 'giant slop machine,' then the moviegoing public chose to be piggies at the trough this weekend.
