'Fantastic' Sequel Storms Top Spot
by Brandon Gray
June 18, 2007
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer blazed to the top of the weekend box office with $58.1 million on approximately 6,200 screens at 3,959 theaters. The opening gross was a bit higher than the first Fantastic Four's $56.1 million at 3,602 sites but on par in regards to attendance.
Aside from the X-Men pictures, the norm for comic book franchises is to lose attendance with subsequent movies, and Rise of the Silver Surfer could fall short of the first Fantastic Four's $154.7 million final tally. Its retention level, though, should land in the success column as far as the genre is concerned.
Rise of the Silver Surfer served as both a sequel and a big screen debut for the Silver Surfer, another Marvel Comics property, and distributor 20th Century Fox's marketing revolved around the mysterious Surfer. Contrary to the recent trend of mopey comic book adaptations, Fantastic Four has appealed as a straightforward, fun, family-friendly superhero franchise.
