With the wealth of excellent movies we’ve been graced with this year, spearheaded by the seemingly immortal Top Gun: Maverick, it can be hard to remember that the world is still very much living with the ghosts of the COVID-19 pandemic. With moviegoers having been confined to their homes for most of 2020, far away from those sweet ticket stubs, an era of rebuilding for the box office was on the horizon.

And it looks like the battle is still raging on; barring the special case of September 2020, September 2022 reported the worst box office performance for the month since 1996, grossing only $328.7 million despite some high-profile ammunition in The Woman King, Don’t Worry Darling, and Moonage Daydream. It was a measly $2 million more profitable than 1996, a year whose best performer was The First Wives Club.
