These are 4-day estimates from Deadline

1) Sonic the Hedgehog: $68 Million
2) Birds of Prey: $19.6 Million
3) Fantasy Island: $14 Million
4) The Photograph: $13.3 Million
5) Bad Boys for Life: $12.8 Million
6) 1917: $9.0 Million
7) Jumanji: The Next Level: $8.4 Million
8) Doolittle: $8 Million
9) Parasite: $6.6 Million
10) Downhill: $5.2 Million

-Sonic did far better than anybody thought. Given its $95 million budget (even with re-animation after the initial trailer), it will turn a nice profit for Paramount. With Sonic, A Quiet Place II and Top Gun: Maverick, this should be a good year for the studio that has struggled the most over the last 3-4 years
-Fantasy Island is your classic Blumhouse cost-nothing horror film ($7 million) that turns a profit after a week, The Photograph did okay
-Nobody cared about the Force Majure remake, Will Farrell is basically dead in the water as a lead outside of the Daddy's Home films at this point.
-Parasite has its best week of its run, 19 weeks in after its already out on VOD. It will be over $44 million by the end of the weekend, putting it at 5th place all-time for non-English foreign films in the U.S.:

1) Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000): $128 Million
2) Life is Beautiful (1998): $57.6 million
3) Hero (2004): $53.7 Million
4) Instructions Not Included (2013): $44.6 Million
5) Parasite (2019): $44.3 Million (Current Estimate by Deadline after this weekend)
6) Pan's Labyrinth (2006): $37.6 Million
7) Amelie (2002): $33.2 Million
8) Fearless (2006): $24.6 Million
9) Il Postino (1995): $21.8 Million
10) Like Water for Chocolate (1993): $21.6 Million

Stuff like Sonic Boom, his mobile games and all of the memes keep him oddly relevant.

Besides a lot of people who played Sonic as a kid have kids of their own now. So I'm sure that's a big audience too.

But those kids in the middle have no idea who Sonic is.

Sonic Dash has been downloaded on the Play Store 100 million+ times.

Sonic Dash 2: Sonic Boom has been downloaded 50+ million times.

He still is known. I think he's a popular mod on Minecraft and Roblox too.

Because CTRL + C --> CTRL + V is a much more efficient manner than manual retyping?

Yeah I told my friend that the R rating for the Harley Quinn movie played a role why it didn't do that well. She's no Deadpool.
