The Dark Tower
The dog days of summer got a little boost thanks to the return of one of this decennary ’s premier horror enfranchisement , but there was n’t much else of musical note fall out at the box office .
In first isAnnabelle : Creation(read our review ) , which brought in $ 35 million in its first three day . A prequel to the originalAnnabellefrom 2014 , this installment earned a much more positive response than its predecessor , which certainly help its commercial prospects . The in style entry in theConjuringshared world was also the beneficiary of perfect timing , as it face minimum competition with summer winding down . Several of the year ’s biggest films had already done most of their damage , allowingAnnabelleto run somewhat unopposed .
Unfortunately forCreation , its opening weekend figure is the lowest in the series so far , but that at long last is n’t a vainglorious spate . The output budget was a cheap $ 15 million , meaning the film has already more than doubled its price tag end just in the States . Worldwide , its global total is presently $ 71.7 million , so it ’s turned a nice profit for Warner Bros. Since there is n’t much of note fare out over the next few weeks , Annabelleseems to be specify up for a fruitful run and will go down as a succeeder .
Coming in second isDunkirkwith $ 11.4 million . Christopher Nolan ’s acclaimed World War II dramatic event continues to halt well , lift its domestic haul to $ 153.7 million .
In third is the new animated filmThe Nut Job 2 : Nutty By Nature . The continuation bring in $ 8.9 million during its opening weekend , which is slightly below expectations but still in the same ballpark . Typically , phratry movies do well at the box office , but this one struggled to make much of an impact . It go into theaters with little buff fare , and the reviews did n’t do it any favors . With a first appearance like this , it ’s unlikely to flow around in theaters for much longer .
After make headway the weekend last calendar week , The Dark Towerfell all the way to fourth in its second frame . The Stephen King adaption earn $ 7.8 million , a sizable 58.9 per centum cliff from its debut . To date , it ’s land in $ 34.3 million domestically , fall dupe to the damaging word - of - mouth . It has n’t received much of a boost from the strange mart , as the global sum is only $ 53.6 million . Though the production budget was a manageable $ 60 million , Dark Towerstill has a long agency to go until it reaches profitability , and things do n’t look all that swell right now .
Rounding out the top five isThe Emoji Moviewith $ 6.6 million . It ’s now up to $ 63.5 million domestically .
In sixth isGirls Trip . The drollery continue to strike , making $ 6.5 million in its fourth weekend to raise its U.S. aggregate to $ 97.1 million .

DramaThe Glass Castledebuts in ninth with $ 4.8 million in its first three day . Though the film was only playing in 1,461 locations , it was able-bodied to stand out as a antagonistic - programming selection for older moviegoers seem for a break from typical tentpole fare .
