Warner Brothers officially has a phenomenon on their hands, as Crazy Rich Asians saw one of the best holds for a non-holiday release in years. Meanwhile, STX had their second straight dud with The Happytime Murders, while Searching got off to a great start in limited release.

Crazy Rich Asians fell a stunning 5.7% in its second weekend, pulling an additional $25 million and raising its domestic total to $76 million. On top of this, the film is also positioned well for Labor Day next weekend, where it will likely remain unchanged or even do more than $25 million over the four day frame. This kind of hold for a traditional wide release is almost entirely unheard of, but not without comparison; another sleeper hit that was lauded for its representation was Get Out, which dipped just 15% in its second weekend, despite being an R rated horror movie (which tend to fall over 50%) and facing competition from Logan. From here, it looks like Asians will wind up closer to $200 million as it blazes past the century mark sometime next weekend. With the film all but guaranteed to hold onto first next weekend, followed by The Nun on the 7th, Warner Brothers will likely wind up taking first for five consecutive weekends – with an outside chance at six if The Predator tanks.

The Meg regained some footing with a strong 38% drop, which was enough to take second. With $105 million in the bank, the shark thriller should be close to $130-140 million when all is said in done.

Coming in third is STX’s comedy The Happytime Murders, which failed to turn its unique premise into an effective selling point. For once, critics and audiences agreed, as they both rejected the puppet noir, with a tough C- CinemaScore and atrocious 27 on metacritic. The $10 million debut ended up closer to Death to Smoochy than Sausage Party. Despite being in production hell for nearly a decade, the end product somehow wound up costing between $40-47 million, making this a complete flop. This is also the second flop in a row for STX, who will try their hand once again in just two weeks with the action thriller Peppermint.

The last new big release this weekend was A.X.L, which was a dud with just $2.9 million, a debut that, while terrible, was still admittedly above its sub $2 million expectations. Still, for a film playing in over 1,700 locations, that’s simply unacceptable. Global Road is in a full on financial crisis following a number of theatrical flops such as this and Hotel Artemis.

Also worth noting was the Papillon remake, which opened in 544 locations to an unimpressive $1.1 million.

There was actually another wide release this weekend, but if you haven’t heard of it, the numbers imply you’re not alone; Beautifully Broken opened in 651 locations, and didn’t even post a weekend estimate. They did, somewhat bizarrely however, post the Friday and Saturday numbers, which only amounted to a collective $453K, meaning it won’t get too far past $600K by Sunday. This is somewhat comprable to Good Time, which opened on the same weekend last year in far too many theaters than it should have, and then tanked in wide release to due a complete lack of marketing or awareness.

Screen Gems’ Sundance acquisition Searching got off to a great start this weekend, as it released in 9 locations and scored a $40K per theater average. Originally set for a somewhat bullish nationwide release on the 3rd, Sony instead pushed the film back as well as changing it to a platform release, likely as a way to gauge how many theaters it should be released in. It seems they’re satisfied with the results, as they plan on targeting around 1,100 locations next weekend.
