"Bone Temple" Zombies Bring in Modest but Promising Start
A modest start has been made by the zombie flick "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple", which opened at $31.1 million worldwide, with domestic audiences contributing a relatively smaller sum of $15 million. Although this falls short of its predicted target of $20-22 million, it's worth noting that the film may still benefit from word-of-mouth in the coming weeks.
Critics and audiences alike have been generally positive towards the film, which could help to boost its box office performance over time. With Sony already greenlighting a third installment featuring Cillian Murphy reprising his role as original star Danny Glover's character, it will be interesting to see how "28 Years Later" performs in comparison to other recent releases such as "Primate", "No Other Choice", and the highly successful "Avatar: Fire and Ash".
In its fifth weekend at the box office, "Fire and Ash" continues to impress with a projected $17.2 million domestic haul, bringing its total domestic earnings to $363.5 million and global grosses to $1.31 billion. The Disney animated film has now cemented itself as Hollywood's highest-grossing movie of all time.
As the next few weeks unfold, it will be crucial to monitor "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple"'s performance in order to determine its long-term viability on the big screen.

I gotta say, $31.1 million worldwide ain't too shabby for a zombie flick, but 12 mil short of predictions is kinda disappointing 
. On the bright side, positive word-of-mouth can work wonders, so fingers crossed it'll pick up steam 
. The fact that they're already planning a third installment with Cillian Murphy is definitely exciting, though 
. But let's be real, "Fire and Ash" is just on another level right now 
. I mean, 363.5 mil domestic? That's insane 
. What do you guys think about this new zombie flick? Worth checking out or not? 
. And wow, $1.31 billion for "Avatar: Fire and Ash"? That's just crazy 
. I'm curious to see how "Bone Temple" compares to other recent zombie flicks like "Primate" though 
Anyway, it's cool that it's doing better than expected, but $31.1 million worldwide is like, not a grave concern or anything 
. Now let's hope it doesn't get too much of a flesh wound in the next few weeks and keep on trucking to make some more undead dough 
we need 2 see how "Bone Temple" holds up in the coming weeks 
can't wait to see how it compares to Avatar: Fire and Ash tho 
that Disney film is straight fire 
The zombie flick is getting some decent buzz I think the word-of-mouth thing is gonna make a difference for this one. With Cillian Murphy coming back, it's defo worth keeping an eye on how it compares to those other recent releases. I mean, Avatar: Fire and Ash is still killing it 
but we'll see if "The Bone Temple" can carve out its own niche in the zombie genre. 
. Now, if it can keep up with Avatar: Fire and Ash on the box office chart, I'd say it's got a shot 
. Fire and Ash is just insane 
, no surprise it's breaking records 
... but I'm not buying it, folks! There's more to this story than meets the eye 
But at the same time, I can see why they're going for a third installment of "28 Years Later". Cillian Murphy as Danny Glover's character sounds like an awesome addition to the franchise. The thing is, though, the movie industry is so unpredictable... I mean, who would've thought that "Primate" or "No Other Choice" would do well? 
️ but seriously can we talk about how underrated this movie is lol? everyone's all about avatar fire and ash but let's be real that film's been out for ages now it's already had time to get old 
meanwhile 28 years later's just getting started 
and don't even get me started on the merch opportunities i mean can you imagine buying a cillian murphy action figure
