What do the cheapest last-minute Rüfüs Du Sol concert tickets cost?
Rüfüs Du Sol is back for another round.
Following the first two legs of the Australian group's 2025 'Inhale/Exhale World Tour' — where they played venues all over the U.S., Switzerland, France, Germany, Italy and a handful of other countries — they've returned to North America for their third and final stretch of the run.
This time, Tyrone Lindqvist, Jon George and James Hunt will headline stadiums, music theaters, amphitheaters and festivals from coast to coast.
That includes two huge shows at Harrison, NJ's Red Bull Arena on Friday, July 25 and Saturday, July 26 with special guest Overmono.
The trio will also lend their talents to Chicago's annual Lollapalooza on Saturday, Aug. 2.
In the event you haven't seen the group live, the party-starting trio typically brings 25 or so songs to the stage at every show according to Set List FM. At a recent show in Paris, that included their megahits 'Innerbloom,' 'You Were Right,' 'On My Knees,' 'Sundream' and 'Next To Me.'
And, if concert footage from Rüfüs Du Sol's Instagram are any indication, these are shows that must be experienced live to be fully appreciated.
'A major highlight was Lindqvist's knack for connecting with the crowd, upping the energy on early-set bangers like 'On My Knees,' which had everyone singing along at the top of their lungs, and 'You Were Right,'' Miami New Times raved about about a concert at Bayfront Park back in May.
'[They're] a leading force in electronic music, pushing [the genre's] boundaries with a sound that evokes a blend of New Order and Daft Punk and live shows that are sonically impressive and intimately engaging.'
If you'd like to see the deep house dudes from Down Under live, tickets are available for all upcoming North American 'Inhale/Exhale World Tour' concerts and festival dates.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one show was $41.15 including fees on Vivid Seats.

Rüfüs Du Sol new music
On Oct. 11, 2024, the EDM icons put out their fifth studio album 'Inhale/Exhale.'
Comprised of 15 atmospheric tracks, the record flexes Lindqvist, George and Hunt's natural party-starting tendencies while taking them to the next level.
Although 'Inhale/Exhale' is one of those 'no skip albums,' you'll want to pay extra attention to the one-two punch of 'Inhale' and the bouncy 'Lately' that kick off the proceedings. It's a masterclass in building tension — like a rollercoaster ascending to its peak — and then releasing through uninhibited grooves.
Other highlights include the headbanger 'Music is Better,' chant-like 'Levitating' and chilly, synth-y 'Break My Love.'
Make sure to stick around until the album closer 'Exhale,' which somehow transports you underwater before coming up for a much-needed breath of air; an exhalation if you catch our drift.
Fans hoping to hear the 'Inhale/Exhale' in its entirety can find the hair-raising record here.
Rüfüs Du Sol review
This past January, the New York Post's Miska Salemann saw Rüfüs Du Sol live at Zamna aka Tulum's premiere electronic music festival. Here's an excerpt from her emphatic review:
'The true magic comes as the group begins playing 'Innerbloom,' easily their most anticipated song of the early morning,' she wrote. 'I watch as hundreds of now familiar strangers place their hands over their hearts, others reach out as if to grab the lyrics, spirit fingers fluttering as Tyrone sings 'If you want me/If you need me/I'm yours.' We sway back and forth unapologetically, clinging on to every break, noticing how each sparse lyric is picked so intentionally to craft something never been done before. It's a musical experiment and we were all a part of it.'
'And then suddenly, just before the beat drops, a light shower of warm rain begins washing over our salty bodies. Cracks of orange light peak out from beneath the moon. The darkness evaporates. There is a sense of wholeness. We hear other people murmuring about God being part of the production team. It's hard to argue with that. 'It's purifying,' my friend shouts, her face freckled with drops of rain. 'It's paradise.''
If you want to read more about her experience, you can find Salemann's vivid story here.

Lollapalooza 2025: Our picks for the best music by day and what not to miss
Lollapalooza 2025 returns to Grant Park, bringing another stellar lineup of artists that captures the current musical zeitgeist. This year's festival showcases an impressive blend of breakthrough acts and established favorites, with headliners like Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter and Tyler, the Creator. It's also an exciting year for artists who've found their creative stride, from Grammy-nominated R&B powerhouse Durand Bernarr to genre-defying sensation Amaarae to mega breakout rapper Doechii, a hip hop superstar in the making. What makes this year's Lollapalooza especially compelling is its focus on artists who represent the future of their respective genres. Whether it's Clairo's sophisticated, downtempo evolution on 'Charm,' innovative approach to indie rock, or The Marías' emotionally resonant breakup anthems, the festival promises to be a showcase for music that feels both contemporary and timeless. Here's our picks for the best-of-the-best. Not to Miss: Durand Bernarr; Ratboys; Tyler, the Creator After years of grinding in the industry, Durand Bernarr is finally receiving praise. Earlier this year, Bernarr earned his first Grammy nomination in the category for progressive R&B album for 2024's 'En Route.' The eight-track EP, created in only five days, marked a significant, yet still compelling departure for the musician, who is best known for his multi-octave vocals. Blending elements of rock and funk with his signature R&B on songs like 'Must Be Nice' and 'GPS,' Bernarr proved he's more than just a killer vocalist. Catch him on the T-Mobile stage as part of his ongoing and extensive 'You Gon' Grow, Too!' tour, which has taken him around the world. Who knew Tyler, the Creator would become one of the most successful and creative breakouts from Odd Future? While the California-based collective sparked controversy when they found mainstream success more than a decade ago, the group's members (including artists like Syd and Frank Ocean) made a concerted effort to distinguish themselves as individual artists, too. And one of the most successful out of the bunch is Tyler, the Creator. Last year, Tyler released his critically acclaimed eighth studio album, 'Chromakopia,' an introspective examination of authenticity and masculinity. Since then, the musician has been on an international tour, where fans get the chance to witness Tyler's dynamic stage presence and elaborate, immersive production. His headlining appearance on the T-Mobile stage should be a feast for the eyes and ears, and a welcome departure from typical music festival experiences. It's always special when a Chicago band makes good and gets a prime spot at one of the city's major music festivals. And this year, that honor goes to Ratboys. This four-piece, known for their tender, introspective indie rock, broke out in a major way with the release of their fifth and most critically praised studio album, 2023's 'The Window.' Filled with warm power pop (like the nostalgia-laden 'Empty') and alt country flourishes, the record is a perfect encapsulation of Chicago's diverse indie rock scene. The album's title track is an especially poignant ditty filled with yearning and loss, one that's sure to linger in the minds of listeners for years to come. If you were unable to get tickets to their Sleeping Village after-show, this afternoon festival appearance on the Bud Light stage is a must-see. Best Stage: Besides the previously mentioned Tyler, the Creator and Durand Bernarr, Thursday's T-Mobile stage also includes Gracie Abrams, Nourished by Time and Barry Can't Swim, making it one of the more eclectic stages for the day. From the funk-driven soul of Bernarr to the atmospheric offerings from Nourished by Time to the electronic-based sounds of Barry Can't Swim, the stage lineup is diverse and fun. Something Else: Gracie Abrams' massive breakout success comes as no surprise. After an opening slot on Taylor Swift's 'Eras' tour, Abrams captured the hearts of a new fanbase, one eager for more songs brimming with winsome yearning. And while she's been releasing records since 2020's 'minor,' there was something special about last year's 'The Secret of Us.' Maybe it was the record's stripped-down tunes, like album closer 'Packing It Up,' or her more mature lyrics or viral singles like 'That's So True,' a certified earworm and tongue twister that earned Abrams her first top 10 hit on the Billboard charts. Maybe it was the track 'us.,' a collaboration with Swift that also earned the artist a Grammy nomination. Regardless, Abrams has found her to Miss: Ravyn Lenae; T-Pain; Olivia Rodrigo As a longtime fan, what a delight it's been to watch born and bred Chicagoan Ravyn Lenae find real, true breakout success. TikTok is the great musical equalizer and Lenae found herself on the receiving end of its users' praise with the viral success of her 2024 'Love Me Not.' Quirky and upbeat (despite its lyrics of relatable yearning), the track is a perfect showcase for Lenae's unique brand of R&B that is equal parts experimental and traditional. But Lenae is more than just a viral sensation, as evident on releases like 2022's 'Hypnos' and 2024's 'Bird's Eye,' brilliant records that deserve a deeper second (and third and fourth) listen. Later this year, she'll join Lolla headliner Sabrina Carpenter for a handful of dates as part of her 'Short n' Sweet Tour.' But if you're not willing to dish out hundreds of dollars for that tour, you can catch her on the Lakeshore stage. Her set is sure to please even the most fickle of festival audiences. It may have taken a while, but signature late aughts artist T-Pain is finally receiving his flowers. Yes, he may have popularized the use of autotune and vocoder in the new millennium, but the two-time Grammy Award winner is more than just passing trends. In recent concert appearances, the multifaceted singer and musician has let his natural voice shine, proving that underneath his signature production touches is a true artist. In recent appearances, he's covered tracks like Sam Smith's 'Stay With Me' and Chris Stapleton's 'Tennessee Whiskey.' But that doesn't mean the charismatic charmer of songs like 'Blame It' and 'Low' is long-gone. T-Pain's Lolla appearance on the Bud Light stage is part of the ongoing 'TP20 Tour,' celebrating the musician's 20th anniversary as a solo artist within the industry. Mega hits like 'I'm Sprung' and 'Buy U a Drank,' perhaps one of the most iconic hits from the millennial club era, have made appearances on recent show setlists. While she may be one of the biggest pop music sensations of the current decade, Olivia Rodrigo has always been a little more interesting in comparison to her peers. Perhaps it's her embrace of '90s pop rock. First heard on tracks like 'good 4 u' from her debut album, 'Sour,' Rodrigo leaned into her rock-loving instincts with 2023's 'Guts.' Tracks like 'all-american bitch,' featuring guttural screams and lyrics like, 'I know my age and I act like it,' showcase the singer-songwriter's cheeky and confrontational musical style. The track 'bad idea right?' will remind listeners of groups like Garbage and Elastica. Even early singles like 'vampire' sound like a tribute to Meatloaf. If you haven't given her a chance before, now is the perfect time to jump in and catch her performance on the T-Mobile stage. Best Stage: Start your day early at the Lakeshore stage with the indie charm of Dogpark before pop rising star Isabel Larosa takes the stage with her sultry, TikTok-viral sound that's been captivating Gen Z audiences. R&B maven Rayn Lenae and Ghanaian American sensation Amaarae follow. Later, Wallows caps off the stage with their dreamy indie rock anthems (like 2019's '80s-throwback single 'Are You Bored Yet?'), proving why they've become one of the most beloved acts in the poppier contemporary rock music scene. Something Else: Amaarae can't be contained. Don't just call her pop. Don't just call her R&B. Amaarae exists somewhere else, where genres are penetrable and malleable. The musician's 2023 record 'Fountain Baby' was the perfect encapsulation of this music ethos. Tracks like the utterly danceable 'Angels in Tibet' and the Afrobeats-inspired 'Princess Going Digital' were a pure vibe and the perfect accompaniment to house parties and lounges. Next month, she'll release her latest record 'Black Star,' which has been described as a more personal album, the effects of which can even be found on the album's cover, which features Amaarae in front of the Ghanaian flag. New single 'S.M.O.' is another sonic stunner, blending elements of highlife with bass and zouk. If you're interested in a little dance party at the festival, Amaarae is your best bet. Not to Miss: Doechii; Clairo Unsure of rising fame? Just take a listen to Justin Bieber's latest album, 'Swag,' which includes a number of songs that sound like they're indebted to soulful, lo-fi aesthetics (that's probably because the musician co-produced and co-wrote on the record). That's not a bad thing, and surely proves why the critically acclaimed musician is primed to stay. Last year's 'Two Star & the Dream Police' spawned a number of singles, including the delightful 'Are You Looking Up' and 'How Many Miles.' Last fall, the musician released his latest and most successful single, 'Rockman.' The song, which sounds like a new millennium interpretation of peak Phil Collins, is actually quite good and hints at what may come next in the musician's sound (think a little more groove-heavy, while still incorporating his classic, bright DIY flourishes). Lolla doesn't always get it right with their picks, but they certainly did with who performs on The Grove stage. Talk about a breakout. This year has proven to be Doechii's most celebrated year yet, with a rap album Grammy win (only the third for a woman since the category was introduced more than 30 years ago) and an uber-viral breakout single, 'Anxiety.' But Doechii is more than just talk. Her 2024 mixtape 'Alligator Bites Never Heal,' was a sharp, eclectic showcase for a rapper who's bubbled under the surface for half a decade. Tracks like 'Boiled Peanuts,' 'Denial is a River' and 'Nissan Altima,' prove there's no singular word that can encapsulate Doechii's music except for 'good.' And her 2025 Grammys set (now nominated for an Emmy) shows she's a few steps ahead of her peers. Theatrical and bright, Doechii is an artist we'll surely be talking about for years to come. She performs on the T-Mobile stage. Don't just classify Clairo as the same as her peers. Her third studio (and first self-released) album, 'Charm,' proved this singer-songwriter has a few surprises up her sleeve. Singles like 'Sexy to Someone' and 'Add Up My Love' were a perfect blend of Carol Simon-esque pop hooks with soulful grooves. But the downtempo 'Juna' really surprised listeners. A jazzy and R&B slow burner, the track quickly went viral for its sumptuous, sophisticated vibes and singer Claire Cottrill's light yet warm vocals. Truly, it's an instant classic. Earlier this year, the musician collaborated with producer Leon Michels (of El Michels Affair) on the psych-twinged track 'Anticipate.' The shimmery, '70s-inspired track was the perfect next step in the two's ongoing musical partnership, after Michels produced 'Charm.' Clairo's Lolla set on the Bud Light stage will be the perfect palette cleanser for audiences during what is typically the busiest day. Best Stage: If you're looking for something a little different (especially after the loss of the Pitchfork Music Festival), The Grove stage may be your best bet. The artists showcased here are not afraid to push creative boundaries across multiple genres. There is Dua Saleh, the Sudanese American artist whose blend of R&B, hip hop and experimental sounds has earned critical acclaim and a devoted following. Orion Sun follows with her ethereal, dreamy compositions that merge indie-pop sensibilities with introspective lyricism. Genre-bending act Bilmuri brings their unique fusion of post-hardcore and pop sensibilities while closes the stage with his innovative yet nostalgic approach to indie-rock that feels indebted to the synthy pop of the '80s and the bedroom pop of late aughts. Something Else: Doechii isn't the only eclectic rapper performing on Saturday. Rapper Barrington Hendricks, who performs as JPEGMAFIA, is set to perform on the Lakeshore stage. Fans should expect selections from 2024's 'I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR YOU' (featuring the incredible 'either on or off the drugs' and 'I'll Be Right There') and his latest record, 'Veteran: Director's Cut.' Released in June, the record is the next step in the musician's glitchy, sharp-witted sound. Not to Miss: Sabrina Carpenter; Finneas; The Marias It may seem like Sabrina Carpenter just blew up overnight, but the pop musician has been slowly grinding on the fringes of the industry for more than a decade. First known as a child star on the Disney Channel television show 'Girl Meets World,' Carpenter released five records before her breakout album, 2024's 'Short N' Sweet.' Led by her single 'Espresso,' last year's undisputed 'Song of the Summer,' the record hinted at what's next for Carpenter's career. Blending elements of country twang on tracks like 'Please, Please, Please,' with late '90s, vibe-heavy, R&B-inspired grooves on 'Bed Chem,' the record was a bite-size feast for the ears. If the album cover is any indication, her next record, 'Man's Best Friend,' is sure to ruffle feathers. But the record's first single, 'Manchild,' is a sonic smash-up of her perfect melodies and her ever-emerging country leanings. She performs on the T-Mobile stage. He's more than just his sister's biggest collaborator. On his latest record, 'For Cryin' Out Loud,' musician and producer Finneas embraced a more collaborative approach to his music. Gone are the solo, bedroom pop sounds of his debut. Later this year, the musician will release another record, but this time as part of the band The Favors, which features musician Ashe. We don't know if this Lolla set will feature any of this upcoming music (which has a more Fleetwood Mac-inspired rock sound to it), but it'll surely traverse his already rich body of work. He performs on the Lakeshore stage. 'Submarine,' The Marias' latest album released last year, proves breakup records will always have a place in the hearts of listeners. Traversing the dissolution of the relationship between band co-founders Maria Zardoya and Josh Conway, the record is a tender, sonically piercing feat that blends Latin instrumentals with hazy rhythms. Earlier this year, the group released 'Back to Me,' an ominous, synth-heavy wall-of-sound about yearning for a past lover. For listeners, it seems like the complicated dynamic between Zardoya and Conway is not yet over. Their Lolla set on the Bud Light stage is part of a larger tour, which has gained new fans around the country for their vibrant live performances. Best Stage: The day flourishes with global pop sensation Katseye, the multi-national girl group whose infectious energy and polished choreography have made them streaming darlings (and social media) phenomena. Their set is early in the afternoon at the T-Mobile stage, and sure to attract a large crowd, but that shouldn't deter you from checking them out. When they inevitably reach superstar status, you'll have bragging rights for saying you caught them 'back then,' before they took over the world. Later, hip-hop veteran Isaiah Rashad brings his laid-back flow. Actor and alternative darling Dominic Fike follows and pop princess Sabrina Carpenter closes the night with her theatrical, charming performance style. Something Else: The appearance of viral internet sensation Aliyah's Interlude on the BMI stage is a surprising choice for Lolla bookers, but not surprising. The festival often includes an off-kilter choice or two, and Aliyah's Interlude fits the bill this year. While she hasn't released a full-length record yet, the rapper has released a number of house music-inspired singles, including 'IT GIRL,' her fun and campy debut. New songs like 'WTF MY DRINK @?' lean into her signature party-girl vibes, but this time with a more ominous tone that at times reminds me of Doechii and Azealia Banks. She may have gained attention for her club-driven fashion choices, but it's clear Aliyah's Interlude is more than just her fabulous style.

How did 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' compare to 'Superman' at the box office?
Who would win in a box-office smackdown between Superman and the Fantastic Four? Superhero movie fans just got the answer − although it's so close that it's practically a draw. Marvel's "The Fantastic Four: First Steps," starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn and Ebon Moss-Bachrach, opened to an impressive $118 million at the domestic box office this weekend, according to estimates released by Comscore on Sunday, July 27. The anticipated numbers put the film's debut just slightly below that of DC's "Superman," with David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, which opened to $125 million at the North American box office earlier this month. Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox Released just two weeks apart, "Fantastic Four" and "Superman" have a lot in common, as both are new interpretations of iconic superhero characters whose recent cinematic renditions were poorly received. The last Fantastic Four movie was the critically reviled 2015 bomb "Fantastic Four," which opened to just $25 million domestically. Superman, meanwhile, was coming off a series of movies from director Zack Snyder, whose darker vision for the character was divisive. The two movies were also similarly crucial for the future of their respective franchises. The stars of "Fantastic Four: First Steps" will return in "Avengers: Doomsday" (expected Dec. 18, 2026), a major event film for Marvel, meaning the group's debut movie performing poorly would have spelled trouble for Disney. The same could be said for DC, given that "Superman" is the first film in a relaunched cinematic universe that has numerous more entries on the way, including next summer's "Supergirl" (June 26, 2026), starring Milly Alcock. In the end, both Marvel and DC can breathe a sigh of relief. "Fantastic Four" and "Superman" not only each opened well at the box office, but also earned positive reviews from critics and the exact same A- grade from audiences polled by CinemaScore, a research firm that surveys moviegoers at theaters. Also breathing a sigh of relief? Movie theaters, which had a strong July between the pair of superhero blockbusters and "Jurassic World Rebirth" with its solid $148 million five-day holiday debut at the start of the month. But not even superheroes and dinosaurs were enough to steal the seasonal box-office crown from "Lilo & Stitch." After snagging a huge $146 million three-day debut in May, the Disney live-action remake still holds the title of biggest opening weekend of the summer, and it's the only Hollywood movie to pass $1 billion worldwide so far this year. "First Steps" is the first "Fantastic Four" film released as part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, after the characters were previously owned by 20th Century Fox. It's also Marvel's third movie of 2025, after "Captain America: Brave New World" and "Thunderbolts*," but first to open to more than $100 million domestically over three days.

‘Fantastic Four: First Steps' scores Marvel's first $100 million box office opening of 2025
LOS ANGELES — Marvel's first family has finally found box office gold. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' the first film about the superheroes made under the guidance of Kevin Feige and the Walt Disney Co., earned $118 million in its first weekend in 4,125 North American theaters, according to studio estimates Sunday. That makes it the fourth biggest opening of the year, behind 'A Minecraft Movie,' 'Lilo & Stitch' and 'Superman,' and the biggest Marvel opening since 'Deadpool & Wolverine' grossed $211 million out of the gate last summer. Internationally, 'Fantastic Four' made $100 million from 52 territories, adding up to a $218 million worldwide debut. The numbers were within the range the studio was expecting. The film arrived in the wake of another big superhero reboot, James Gunn's 'Superman,' which opened three weekends ago and has already crossed $500 million globally. That film, from the other main player in comic book films, DC Studios, took second place with $24.9 million domestically. The box office success of 'First Steps' and 'Superman' means 'the whole notion of superhero fatigue, which has been talked about a lot, can I think be put to rest. I always say it's bad movie fatigue, not superhero fatigue,' said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for data firm Comscore. 'The Fantastic Four' review: In a jet age dream of Manhattan, Marvel's world-savers take care of business'First Steps' is the latest attempt at bringing the superhuman family to the big screen, following lackluster performances for other versions. The film, based on the original Marvel comics, is set during the 1960s in a retro-futuristic world led by the Fantastic Four, a family of astronauts-turned-superhuman from exposure to cosmic rays during a space mission. The family is made up of Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), who can stretch his body to incredible lengths; Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), who can render herself invisible; Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), who transforms into a fiery human torch; and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), who possesses tremendous superhuman strength with his stone-like flesh. The movie takes place four years after the family gained powers, during which Reed's inventions have transformed technology, and Sue's diplomacy has led to global peace. Both audiences and critics responded positively to the film, which currently has an 88% on Rotten Tomatoes and promising exit poll responses from opening weekend ticket buyers. An estimated 46% of audiences chose to see it on premium screens, including IMAX and other large formats. The once towering Marvel is working to rebuild audience enthusiasm for its films and characters. Its two previous offerings this year did not reach the cosmic box office heights of 'Deadpool & Wolverine,' which made over $1.3 billion, or those of the 'Avengers'-era. But critically, the films have been on an upswing since the poorly reviewed 'Captain America: Brave New World,' which ultimately grossed $415 million worldwide. 'Thunderbolts,' which jumpstarted the summer movie season, was better received critically but financially is capping out at just over $382 million globally. Like Deadpool and Wolverine, the Fantastic Four characters had been under the banner of 20th Century Fox for years. The studio produced two critically loathed, but decently profitable attempts in the mid-2000s with future Captain America Chris Evans as the Human Torch. In 2015, it tried again (unsuccessfully) with Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller. They got another chance after Disney's $71 billion acquisition of Fox's entertainment assets in 2019. The 'Fantastic Four's' opening weekend results were a little less than some rival studio projections, Dergarabedian said. Nonetheless, the film is expected to carry movie theater earnings well into August. Holdovers dominated the top 10, but one other newcomer managed to make the chart. The dark romantic comedy 'Oh, Hi!' earned $1.1 million from 866 screens. 'Jurassic World Rebirth' landed in third place in its fourth weekend with $13 million, followed by 'F1' with $6.2 million. The Brad Pitt racing movie also passed $500 million globally. 'Smurfs' rounded out the top five with $5.4 million in its second weekend. The box office is currently up over 12% from last year. With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' $118 million. 2. 'Superman,' $24.9 million. 3. 'Jurassic World Rebirth,' $13 million. 4. 'F1: The Movie,' $6.2 million. 5. 'Smurfs,' $5.4 million. 6. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' $5.1 million. 7. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' $2.8 million. 8. 'Eddington,' $1.7 million. 9. 'Saiyaara,' $1.3 million. 10. 'Oh, Hi!,' $1.1 million.
