I think that used to be true, but isn't anymore. COVID changed our viewing habits and audiences haven't shown up in droves to the theaters like they used to. While the big spectacle movies can still achieve those numbers; they are rare and the only ones able to do so. It's becoming increasingly common for movies to underperform at the box office compared to expectations pre-release - especially for Disney produced content.
