Three Thousand Years of Longing, George Miller’s follow-up to one of the greatest movies of the decade, failed to see the same success at the Australian box office in its opening week. Shy of $600,000, it was convincingly out-matched by Orphan: First Kill, which almost reached a million in its first week.
Bullet Train maintains top position for its fifth week, taking its total to a respectable $10 million. But its achievements are nothing compared to this week’s runner-up; Top Gun: Maverick is still earning big bucks months after its release.
Another film that also got the big bucks this year, Spider-Man: No Way Home, tried to scoop up a bit more with the release of The More Fun Stuff Version, but wasn’t able to crack the top five.
