Recapping Last Weekend

Maze Runner: The Death Cure knocked Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle off its perch atop the weekend box office chart last weekend with a debut just shy of $24.2 million.

Jumanji took in more than $16 million in its sixth weekend of release and has now brought in more than $800 million worldwide since its release.

The enjoyable Forever My Girl brought more than $3.5 million during its second weekend of release. The Alex Roe-Jessice Rothe love story had a production budget of just $3.5 million and has brought in more than $9 million in two weeks of release.

Opening This Weekend

Winchester

Helen Mirren stars in the ghost story Winchester, in theaters this weekend. The film is based on the true story of Sarah Winchester, who inherited $20 million  when her husband died in 1881. Her inheritance then was the equivalent to more than $507 million in today’s dollars. She also inherited 50% ownership of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company.

Winchester moved to Connecticut after her husband’s death and built a mansion with more than 90 rooms. Many people insist that the mansion is haunted to this day.

Todd M. Thatcher predicts an opening weekend of $9.1 million for Winchester.

See I, Tonya or Lady Bird at Hi-Pointe Theatre This Weekend

Hi-Pointe Theatre is a hidden gem of St. Louis. The Hi-Pointe Backlot is even more so, hidden behind the main theater on McCausland Avenue. Hi-Pointe has been around since 1922 at the Southwest corner of Forest Park and below the world’s largest Amoco sign.

Hi-Pointe Backlot came on the scene in 2015 on the second floor of a building right behind the main theater. It took three years of rehab before the owners of Hi-Pointe spent 60 straight days putting the final touches on the space. The 48-seat theater has drawn stellar reviews from movie fans.

See Lady Bird this weekend at Hi-Pointe Backlot, while I, Tonya plays at Hi-Pointe Theatre.
