Pixar’s Hoppers Lead Weekend as The Bride! Struggles at Box Office
TL;DR
Pixar’s Hoppers is heading for a $40M+ domestic opening and $85M+ worldwide, riding strong early word-of-mouth and a 94% Rotten Tomatoes critics score (and similar audience score) plus solid cinema scores. In contrast, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride! is tracking only a $7–10M debut, well short of expectations, with weak audience/critic reception (71%/60% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a CinemaScore of C+, signaling a rare box‑office miss for Warner Bros. and a potential shakeup ahead of awards season.
