Box office records
Box office records refer to the gross revenue generated by films during their theatrical release. This includes ticket sales from cinemas worldwide. These records can indicate a film's popularity and success, often compared to previous films in terms of opening weekend earnings, total earnings, or longest-running films in theaters. Key terms include "opening weekend," which measures how much money a movie makes in its first three days, and "all-time box office," which tracks total earnings over a film's entire run. Box office figures are often used to gauge the film industry’s trends and audiences’ preferences.
