Elsewhere, 'My Little Pony' and 'The Mountain Between Us' are also underwhelming; 'It' races past $300 million in the U.S.

The movie, with a hefty running time of 163 minutes, is skewing notably male (71 percent) and older, with 63 percent of ticket buyers over the age of 35.

Blade Runner 2049, garnering strong reviews and an A- CinemaScore, will need to do big business on the worldwide stage after costing a net $150 million to produce. The movie is opening in almost every major international market this weekend, save for China, Japan and South Korea.

On Wednesday and Thursday, Blade Runner earned roughly $6.8 million from its first foreign markets for a projected $48 million-$52 million foreign debut.
