\u201cGodzilla vs. Kong\u201d stormed to the top of the domestic box office, picking up $13.4 million in its second weekend of release. That brings the monster mashup\u2019s stateside haul to $69.5 million, an impressive gross considering it comes in the midst of a global pandemic.<\/p>\n

\"Godzilla-Kong-becomes-top-grossing-film-of-the-pandemic-era-rapidnews-dailyrapid\"<\/p>\n

The Legendary and Warner Bros. release\u2019s robust commercial performance has been all the more notable because it comes as COVID restrictions are in place, limiting capacity in theaters, and also as the film is available on HBO Max. The film dropped 58 percent compared to its opening weekend gross of $32.2 million. Warner Bros. is releasing its entire 2021 slate on HBO Max at the same time they debut in theaters as a concession to coronavirus and a way to bolster the streaming service.<\/p>\n

\u201cGodzilla vs. Kong\u201d is now the top-grossing film of the pandemic era, bypassing Christopher Nolan\u2019s \u201cTenet,\u201d which earned $58.4 million. The impenetrable \u201cTenet\u201d still far outranks \u201cGodzilla vs. Kong\u201d when it comes to sheer narrative confusion.<\/p>\n

Universal\u2019s \u201cNobody,\u201d an action thriller which attempts to give \u201cBetter Call Saul\u2019s\u201d Bob Odenkirk the full Liam Neeson, middle-aged ass-kicker treatment, came in second, with $2.6 million. The film\u2019s domestic total now stands at $15.6 million after three weeks of release.<\/p>\n

Sony\u2019s \u201cThe Unholy\u201d appears poised to capture third place with roughly $2.4 million, pushing its total to $6.7 million. The horror film follows a young hearing-impaired girl who can hear and speak after a supposed visitation from the Virgin Mary. The good news doesn\u2019t last long, however, as terrifying events accompany the apparent miracle.<\/p>\n

Disney\u2019s \u201cRaya and the Last Dragon\u201d was in fourth place with $2.1 million, pushing the animated feature\u2019s North American gross to $35.2 million. \u201cRaya\u201d is also available to rent on Disney Plus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
