Sony’s Venom set a new October box office record with an $80 million debut, and, with help from A Star Is Born’s impressive $42.6 million opening, helped Hollywood set a new total weekend box office record for the month of October with totals for the top 12 films soaring 70% over the same frame last year when Bladerunner 2049 bowed with $32.8 million.

The Tiffany Haddish/Kevin Hart comedy Night School took the weekend box office crown with an estimated $28 million, while the Warner Bros. Animation feature Smallfoot took second with a $23 million debut.

Dark Horse Comics will launch Avatar: Tsu’tey’s Path, a companion comic to James Cameron’s sci-fi blockbuster.
