It’s been a hot summer in Hollywood.
“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” had a record-breaking opening weekend, bringing in $360 million.
Fans were shelling out as much as $600 and traveling thousands of miles to catch “The Odyssey” on premium Imax screens.
And, if you think back to early June, the horror films “Obsession” and “Backrooms” shocked — and thrilled — industry insiders by beating out “Star Wars” at the box office.
