The adaptation is now looking at even higher projections north of $45 million across the three-day frame \u2014 a fantastic start for a drama with a mere $25 million production budget, well below the spend of the typical studio summer tentpole.<\/p>\n<p>Proving less successful at that is \u201cBorderlands,\u201d Lionsgate\u2019s long-gestating adaptation took in a meager $4 million from 3,125 locations, even with increased ticket sales from play in Imax and other premium large-format auditoriums. The sci-fi comedy is in serious danger of opening below $10 million \u2014 a terrible result considering its production budget of $115 million. It could be even be below director Eli Roth\u2019s last feature, the modestly budgeted slasher \u201cThanksgiving,\u201d which got to eight-digits in its debut last fall.<\/p>\n<p>The writing has been on the wall for a while now with \u201cBorderlands.\u201d Now opening more than three and a half years after principal photography kicked off, the would-be franchise-starter has earned the worst critical response of any wide release this summer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Variety\/status\/1822291246045413471\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">source<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com\/128957105.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Box Office: &#8216;It Ends With Us&#8217; Begins With Impressive $24 Million Opening Day, &#8216;Deadpool&#8217; Holds Strong as &#8216;Borderlands&#8217; Crumbles https:\/\/t.co\/35mJJPfGIM \u2014 Variety (@Variety) August 10, 2024 The August box office is looking Lively with Sony\u2019s drama \u201cIt Ends With Us\u201d scoring a spectacular opening day of $24 million from 3,611 locations across Friday and preview [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":117514,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-117513","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hollywood"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117513","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=117513"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/117513\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/117514"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=117513"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=117513"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/entertainment.runfyers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=117513"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
