The Box Office Shake Up: What "Practical Magic 2" Means for Hollywood's Revival of the Classics The surprise success of "Practical Magic 2" at the box office may have been a long time coming, but its implications are far reaching.
With $13 million on Friday and a potential challenge to "Spider Man: Brand New Day"'s six week reign at No. 1, this Warner Bros. dramedy has sparked interest in Hollywood's current priorities.
The original "Practical Magic," released in 1998, was met with disappointment by critics and audiences alike, grossing $94 million worldwide against a budget of $75 million.
