The North American box office over Memorial Day Weekend might be described as a wasteland, with “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” and “The Garfield Movie” pulling in disappointing holiday opening numbers, according to industry estimates.

“Furiosa” brought in an estimated $32 million Friday through Monday, with $25.5 million of that generated Friday through Sunday, representing the lowest total for a top-grossing film on Memorial Day weekend since 1995.

    This is sad to see. It’s a great movie except for the inherent spoilers due to it being a prequel (instead of going “oh shit” you go “ah, this is where she loses her arm”), and it deserves better than bombing. I hope it recovers in the next couple of weeks, but at this rate they’ll probably cancel The Wasteland.
