"Garfield Claws Past Furiosa in Disastrous Memorial Day Box Office"
TL;DR
The summer box office continues to struggle with a significant drop in revenue compared to last year. Sony's "The Garfield Movie" leads with $14M in its second weekend, while Paramount's "IF" narrowly beats Warner Bros.' "Furiosa" for second place. The downturn is attributed to strikes affecting the supply chain and competition from streaming services. Other notable releases include "Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle" and IFC's "In a Violent Nature," which had a strong opening.
