Jamanji dropped only 10% this weekend making it have the seventh largest 8th weekend of all time

I'm guessing it held so well because it was a good alternative to 50 Shades, next weekend will be a good test against Black Panther. More theaters are being taken away from Jamanji as well.

Only one logical explanation:

I cant fathom for the life of me who would want to see this movie. Its not my cup of tea,but i cant grasp the appeal of it. Then again most ''comedy adventure'' movies for hollywood don't appeal to me, so maybe that's it. I don't have any friends who have seen so i cant converse with them to talk about why they like it

My friend and I still need to watch this and plan on watching it in theaters soon

1. You are damn cute.

2. Jack Black is hilarious no matter what he's doing. His high school cheerleader he played was good.

3. Kevin Hearts pretty funny when he's opposite someone bigger than him.

And 4. It's The Rock. One of the biggest, if not THE biggest, star in all of Hollywood

thanks

Yeah one of the reasons I'd see it would be Rock. Hes come a long way from his time as the Scorpion King with acting. How is the humor, is it your typical over exaggerated kevin hart and jackblack humor?(which im not a fan of) or how is it delivered exactly.

Im not 100% against the film,but I've gotten so tired of hollywood comedies that It makes me hesitant to view one due to being burned by so many of them :( 

Most recent estimates put it at ~882 million worldwide. Only 118 million to go. 1 billion hinges on Japan, but it'll get awfully close.

Jamanji made nearly 8 million in its 9th week (9th highest ninth week). It sits at 380 Million in the US (2nd biggest for Sony behind Spiderman which made 403 million). It sits at $909 Million worldwide without a Japan release. This movie is making 400+ domestic and topping $1 billion. Look for Jamanji 3 in 2019.

During the holiday season, my husband and I took our three nieces to the cinema and let them pick the movie. I was a bit disappointed when they said they wanted to see Jumanji over Coco because I was sure it was going to suck but in the end I actually enjoyed it. It's not the movie of the year but it does it the mark for what it's trying to do so I can understand why it had a great run at the box office since word of mouth probably brought people in that previously wrote it off. (Also Nick Jonas is hot)
