- The highly-anticipated "Barbenheimer' opening weekend is finally here.
- New data suggests "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" could help reverse Hollywood's box-office doldrums in 2023.
- A lot's riding on the openings, with the industry facing two simultaneous strikes and a series of poorly-performing films.
Temperatures are rising all around the world, with one notable exception: the box office, where this year's film openings have mostly been, at best, lukewarm.
