Who flipped the switch??
This Halloween kind of felt like last year... and the year before that to be honest. My neighborhood doesn't really have trick-or-treaters because very few kids. The ones I have seen (at least lately) are in strollers and that is a total of 1 kid. Otherwise others have their own cars and I'm sure they will go to a party maybe or went to one already since it did fall on a Sunday this year. I remember growing up and going up and down the streets (literally up and down because I lived in an area with three streets inclined and dead-end including my own house) getting candy from each out and then, change costumes and go out again! I'm sure most houses caught on but I don't think they cared as we were kids. We would bring our pillow cases because they were bigger or could hold more and we probably filled them up almost halfway. Don't see that anymore around here but you would see 2o to 30 kids in groups with parents and flashlights waving around... as they say, those were the good ol' days.
Talk about going from a Winter to a Summer overnight! We had one nice semi-solid day of rain (not a lot though) and it went to warm all of a sudden. Fortunately it didn't got hot, just warm and it cools off fast as soon as the sun goes down. Also, the sun is going down faster lately which is nice. I still can't tell if a warm and dry Winter is ahead or will there be some rain and moisture unlike last year? But it could just feel warmer than it is because of the lack of breezes, never really thought how much they make a difference in the weather till one sits at a desk with windows open... waiting. You check the temperature and it's like 70 but feels at least 10 to 15 degrees warmer. Why? No breeze... moving or flowing air is like the difference between night and day!
Holding onto the crown for a 2nd week is "Dune" for another 15.5 million. It did suffer a significant drop though and now looks like could struggle badly to reach 100 mil, may not make it at this rate but the sequel was already greenlit a go! Hanging on to #2 is "Halloween Kills" earning 8.5 mil more, still potentially could hit the 100 mil mark too. Maintaining #3 is "No Time to Die" with 7.8 mil and continues to perform well. New at #4 is My Hero Academia: World Heroes' Mission with only 1600 screens and earning 6.4 mil. A lot of fan for this franchise in the US. came out big for this movie. Rounding off the top 5 is "Venom: Let There Be Carnage" with 5.8 mil as it inches it's way to 200 mil, should get it by the time the film is done.
New movies that did not make the top 5:
Two new films opened wide, first up is Antlers at #6 with 4.2 million to open. Very low number with a very poor per screen average. New at #7 is Last Night in Soho with 4.2 mil as well and even more screens and lower per screen average.
