"Taylor Swift won this weekend's box office battle, but One Battle After Another is winning the war with its budget. As expected, Swift's cinematic album release event topped the box office with $45 million globally. But also, as merely hoped for, OBAA had a strong second week with $42 million globally. The film has now crossed the $100 million mark, setting it up for success financially and creatively."
"With The Life of a Showgirl, Swift beat Prince by topping the box office upon release. When Purple Rain came out, it was only at number 3. Purple Rain stayed in theaters for weeks, though. Prince's kinda-sorta biopic debuted at $7 million domestic, but has gone on to earn over $70 million in the years since. With the official start of spooky season,"
Taylor Swift's cinematic album release event opened at $45 million globally and led the weekend box office. One Battle After Another earned $42 million globally in its second week and has surpassed $100 million, improving its financial and creative prospects. The Smashing Machine debuted to only $6 million. With The Life of a Showgirl, Swift surpassed Prince by opening at number one; Purple Rain opened at number three but later accumulated over $70 million after a $7 million domestic debut. Horror features are performing well, with The Conjuring: Last Rites holding at number five. IFC's Good Boy opened tenth with $2.2 million, marking IFC's third-best opening.
