\n\tLook out Clayface<\/a>, because Nathan Fielder and Elizabeth Holmes are out for blood. And not the Theranos kind. Like box office blood.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter overperforming this past weekend with $15.6 million and a No. 2 opening, A24\u2019s Gen Z-skewing feature documentary You Can See Everything<\/a> won Monday at the domestic box office with $2.57M, clocking Paramount\/Legendary\/Capcom\u2019s Street Fighter into second with $1.9M.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe documentary, made for less than $10M, now counts a running North American tally of $18.1M. Street Fighter stands at $32.6M through four days.<\/p>\n

\n\tNext to other recent Gen Z fare, You Can See Everything\u2018s Monday ain\u2019t that far from Obsession\u2018s first Monday of $2.9M. It\u2019s also higher than the first Monday of Markiplier\u2019s Iron Lung which was $2.05M, though it is behind A24 sensation Backrooms\u2018 first Monday ($7.6M; no big deal there).<\/p>\n

\n\tYou Can See Everything, directed by Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, is going wide this weekend with at least 2,600 theaters and counting, and early speculation is it has a shot at taking down Warner Bros\/DC\u2019s lower-budget genre movie debut Clayface (a character from the Batman Gotham universe in which the Dark Knight isn\u2019t ever referenced).<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\u2018Clayface\u2019 says \u201cPlease don\u2019t hurt me, Elizabeth Holmes\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWarner Bros. Pictures<\/p>\n

\n\tCalm down, newly merged Paramount-Warner Bros distribution and marketing execs: right now the domestic forecast has Clayface at north of $20M this weekend. We\u2019ve heard presales have picked up for the film in the past two days, with the battle between Clayface and Holmes and Fielder boiling down to a market-by-market fight almost like a Red vs. Blue election. Note that advance ticket sales can jump significantly in the next three days as A24 adds showtimes for You Can See Everything. Major circuits\u2019 presales for Clayface are wavering; some indicate an $18M opening, while others see it in the mid-$20Ms. What\u2019s working here in the James Watkins-directed movie? That trailer scene<\/a> where Clayface is cutting his face with scissors.<\/p>\n

\n\tEntTelligence has the average general ticket price for Clayface at $14.65 versus $12.88 for You Can See Everything. Also Clayface\u2018s in-theater campaign is bigger with 34.1M impressions to 2.3M.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs a three-hour documentary, You Can See Everything is in rare air at the box office. But that runtime didn\u2019t stop it from over-indexing from a high-single-digits forecast last weekend to the $15M+ it notched. Couples are going to You Can See Everything at 44%. Obsession was also a Gen Z couples pic, and that jumped 39% in its second weekend to $23.9M from a $17.1M opening. Unheard of.<\/p>\n

\n\tMany have comped You Can See Everything, given its fewer-than-1,000-screen engagement launch, to 2006\u2019s Borat. That Sacha Baron Cohen movie opened to $26.4M at 837 locations and surged 7% in its second weekend in a 2,566 wide break that earned $28.2M.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen the final box office analysis is run, it wouldn\u2019t be a shocker if You Can See Everything\u2018s weekend results are near to even with Clayface\u2018s. And that\u2019s not with the use of a Theranos machine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Look out Clayface, because Nathan Fielder and Elizabeth Holmes are out for blood.
