Leave it up to the clown prince of crime to steal himself a box office record.

With a lot of people naysaying the film from the moment it was announced, similar to another October film called Venom, the debut of Joker this weekend from Warner Bros. has netted itself a $93.5 million box office take. The film was the largest October opening domestically, the fourth largest opening for an R-rated film, and it was number one at the box office both at home and overseas. Suffice to say, there are a lot of smiling faces at Warner Bros. right now.

Interestingly, we saw a breakdown at BoxOfficeMojo about the CinemaScore where the overall score is a B+ but those under 35 gave it an A-. The film skewed male at 64% and 66% of it was under 35 as well, making it a movie that should get some solid word of mouth over the next week. With the $93.5 million domestic take, it also did $140.5 million overseas to bring it to $234 million this weekend.

After that, everything else is at $12 million or less, which is standard when you have a film that sucks up all the oxygen in the room. Judy expanded by just under 1,000 screens to bring in $4.4 million, giving a $8.9 million total so far. Everything else is slowly contracting for the most part outside of just released films like Abominable, which is at just under $38 million in its opening two weeks.

This coming weekend starts to load up on some competition with Paramount bringing Gemini Man to 3,500 screens while United Artists is dropping The Addams Family animated into 3,800 screens. Lionsgate is sliding Jexi into 2,300 screens. The week also sees Little Monsters arriving (on Tuesday) along with The Dead Center from Arrow Films, A Germany Youth documentary from Big World Pictures, the Gift documentary from Matson films, and High Strung Free Dance from Atlas Distribution. Neon also has Parasite opening on Friday.
