Box Office Report: 26-29 October 2023

Hello Mr Lillard! Universal didn't screen it for critics (the kids knew about it, s'all g), but Five Nights at Freddy's smashed the global box office this weekend. When the reviews came, they were pretty much all scathing, but heck, we live at a time when there is a growing fanbase for 1993's Super Mario Bros. Other than that, Caravaggio's Shadow popped big time for a foreign film, no doubt helped by being played in Palace Cinemas, its distributor, whilst the well-reviewed Dumb Money tanked just like it did in the US, and Aussie animation Scary Girl opened ok on wide release on limited sessions. That's it from us this week, we're off to the annual movie convention on the Gold Coast tomorrow, to pat all of the exhibitors and film company corporations on the back for getting people back into the cinema.

For all the many (many!) barriers to entry that these quarter-of-a-century-old games possess, there’s absolute magic if you’re willing to dig a little deeper.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage

In Game, Gaming, Home, Review, This Week by Dov Kornits

… plays very much like an old school Assassin’s Creed game with an emphasis on stealth, parkour, distraction, guile and – eventually – merciless bloodletting.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty

In Gaming, Home, Review, This Week by Dov Kornits

… there’s a lot to like here, with slick graphics, finely tuned and enjoyable combat, and a pervasive sense of the bleak existence in a futuristic hellscape… which is a bit like our own but with better tech and moodier lighting.
