To see why social media is playing an important role in the opening of “Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials,” see the cast’s Twitter followings below. Without adjusting for inflation, they rank third and sixth. Taking inflation into account, however, “Rush Hour,” which made $33 million in 1998 ($57 million adjusted to today’s dollars), and “Sweet Home Alabama” ($35 million in 2002, $49 million today) would place one and two, respectively. (The other was 2013’s “Insidious Chapter 2.”) It would also eclipse the first movie’s opening, which made $32.5 million in 2014. If it opens to current projections - $48 million - it will blow that previous record out of the water, making it only the third film in September box office history to top the $40 million mark.
