How appropriate that a movie that's celebrating its 50 years, an all-time classic, Jaws, should be as relevant today as it was when it opened, Dergarabedian said. It's so great because we need every dollar to contribute to the bottom line for this summer. The rerelease helped boost a summer with earnings likely coming in at $3.7 billion, just under last summer. Still, this year will miss the typical pre-pandemic summer box office benchmark of $4 billion, Dergarabedian said.

Head-spinningly gorgeous in every frame, if also head-scratchingly impenetrable in many scenes (at least for some Western audiences), this mix of a 16th century novel, Chinese mythology and breathtaking digital imagery is already a worldwide box-office juggernaut. It's taken in about $2 billion worldwide (more than Inside Out 2, Hollywood's top-grossing animated film). And the film is likely to win new fans, as it's only now being released in the U.S. with an English voice cast.

Apple's latest film, 'F1: The Movie,' debuted on June 27 and has already grossed about $293 million globally, making it the company's highest-grossing film to date.
