More and more news is coming out of the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie, as the impact it is having with the audience is absolutely phenomenal, as it has completely divided the critics with the audience, indicating that it is the audience that wins.
Despite the dismal results that the critics are giving this movie, with a fearsome and less than 30% abjection rate, the impact that the audience has shown is most interesting, as it has shown that people want to see it no matter what anyone else says and so it has undoubtedly become a success, even surpassing movies that were not expected and that had great impact in the same way.
Five Nights at Freddy’s surpasses Super Mario Bros The Movie.
According to The Numbers, the movie Five Nights at Freddy’s grossed $39.7 million in the United States on its opening day alone. Super Mario’s sales in U.S. theaters when it was released exceeded that by almost 8 million.
The numbers that both films have achieved are undoubtedly completely impressive:
FNAF The Movie (US) – $39,740,000 million.
Super Mario Bros The Movie (US) – $31,702,735 million.
It is important to note that a portion of that amount is due to raising funds through special screenings that took place the day before its official North American release, which occurred on October 26 instead of October 27. In addition, the Super Mario Bros. movie managed to break records in its first weekend, even though it lasted 5 days instead of the usual 3 when released on a Wednesday. In any case, FNAF has been the video game movie with the best box office opening in the United States.
