“Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” hit theatres on Friday, but given the long-awaited sequel’s weak opening-day numbers, a better title may have been “Indiana Jones and the Box Office of Doom”.reports that the fifth and final film in the franchise brought in $24 million in its first day of release at the domestic box office, with an opening-weekend projection of $60 million.
Not only is this a disappointing number for a film that reportedly cost $295 million to make, it’s also significantly lower than the previous instalment, “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”, which brought in $100 million in its debut weekend back in 2008.
