Saw X Trapped in Second Place Box Office Debut by PAW Patrol, Despite Outshining Original

Following a few lackluster weekends in the past month, September has come to an end, and thanks to a string of new releases, a promising box office seems to be lying ahead.Paramount’s animated feature PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie emerged as the leader of the closely contested battle between the three new movies. The film managed to outpace both Lionsgate’s highly-anticipated horror entry Saw X and director Gareth Edwards’ The Creator.Although Saw X had a strong opening day, grossing $8 million from 3,262 theaters, the collection, in fact, includes $2 million from Thursday preview earnings, hence earning less on Friday. While it might not claim the top spot, Saw X is expected to surpass the performance of all of its predecessors back to 2010’s Saw 3D, which took home $8.9 million on opening day. Contrary to that film’s mere 9% “rotten” rating, Saw X has garnered overwhelmingly positive critical reviews, sitting at an 87% “fresh” score on Rotten Tomatoes.RELATED: Saw X Featurette Reveals How the Sequel Goes Back to the Franchise’s Roots
