Part 6/10:
The two Wicked films, Wicked and Wicked for Good, present an intriguing comparison. While Wicked for Good opened with more than $147 million domestically, it appears to be catching up to the original Wicked in terms of longevity and core audience.

Predator: Badlands has become the highest-grossing film in the Predator franchise domestically at $85 million, and worldwide, it has amassed $174.4 million, establishing a new franchise high. However, as a mid-budget film, it’s not expected to generate immense revenue but is profitable when considering ancillary markets.
