Box-Office Weekend: Dune Assumes the Throne
Again, the marquee debut of the weekend claimed the top spot over the box-office weekend as Dune (or, Dune: Part One) knocked Halloween Kills from the top spot after only one week. The first of a two-part series, Dune, took in $40.1 million in its first weekend of release. Although that return was less-than-stellar for the sci-fi epic’s opening weekend, it still boasts an impressive $220.7 million...[Read More]
