"*There is no stopping Spider-Man: No Way Home, even 8 weekends into it run"*-- Paul Ebeling

In its latest feat, the Sony and Marvel superhero blockbuster is passing up the original run of *Avatar* at the domestic box office to rank as the #3 movie of all time, not adjusted for inflation. The pic should accomplish the milestone by Tuesday.

*No Way Home* earned another $9.6-M over the weekend to finish Sunday with $749-M in ticket sales, less than a $1-M off of the $749.8-M grossed by James Cameron’s *Avatar* in its original domestic run.

Globally *No Way Home* doesn’t have a shot at besting *Avatar*. As, *Avatar* remains the #1 film of all time worldwide after earning $2.84-B throughout the course of its lifetime. 

Then there was *Jackass Forever* at the box office.

The R-rated movie took in a better-than-expected $23.5-M from 3,604 theaters to mark a triumphant return to the big screen for prankster king Johnny Knoxville and his crew.

*Jackass Forever*, costing just $10-M to make, is the 2nd box office win and profit generator for Paramount following January’s *Scream*.

At the specialty box office, acclaimed Norwegian film *The Worst Person in the World* impressed with an opening location average of $33,760 from four theaters in New York and Los Angeles for distributor Neon. That is the best showing for a foreign-language film since Y 2019, and among the Top 20 opening location averages ever for a foreign-language film

Have some fun, see a movie in a theater this week, the chaos is about over. Keep the Faith!
