This shows us that a lot of films are very successful in bringing revenue, especially during the opening weekend. The films above were very successful at the box office and therefore made a lot of profit. Most of these films are also release near the end or right at the starting of the year and this may be a reason to why they are so successful and maybe we should also follow that path.
