The “Minecraft” movie, a collaboration between Warner Bros. and Legendary Entertainment, grossed an impressive $163 million at the domestic box office during its opening weekend. This figure not only set a new record for the highest-opening video game adaptation, surpassing “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” but also significantly boosted the domestic box office. The film’s success helped reduce the year-to-date box office deficit from 13% to just 5%. Through the first three months of the year, the domestic box office collected $1.4 billion, down 12% from the $1.65 billion earned during the same period in the previous year. “Minecraft” also achieved Cinemark’s all-time domestic record for a three-day family film opening and earned $22 million globally for IMAX. The strong performance of “Minecraft” sets a positive tone for the second quarter, which features several high-profile releases.
