Yeah Home is definitely going over 100M

Dragon 2 also had a good release date, the first major animated movie since Rio 2 in April and no other major family competition for the weeks but still it disappointed in DOM. I'm still shocked about that movie's DOM performance

Yeah the last 2 weeks of April could be dull in the box office Glad though here in the Philippines we will Avengers on April 22 and it's summer time here so that's a really great date

Agree, if you didn't know JLo was on it, you would not really know she was voicing the mother. I like Home just fine, I didn't think it would breakout this big and I was worried this would flop as well but glad it did not. It's not really bad, its passable kiddie entertainment Lol at the Sheldon and TBBT hate but oh well it's typical Internet. Comedy is subjective anyway. Online crowd questions why Modern Family and TBBT always get nominated and I don't see why award giving bodies classify shows such as Girls, House of Lies, Nurse Jackie and Orange is the new Black as "comedies". But yeah those are "smart and edgy" shows

Jim, Rihanna and JLO went all out with the promo. I think Jim Parsons could been a factor since Sheldon is a very popular TV character and Oh is basically Sheldon in animated alien form

3 straight weeks of good box office after that weak start of March

YAY for HOME! Happy for DWA, they so need this

This is good for Dreamworks Animation, this is their only movie this year afterall, they need this to be a hit or at least not lose money on it as they rebuild their company and brand

Not really a bad weekend for the top 2 movies and Kingsman! Can Spongebob come near Fifty Shades? (domestically speaking of course)

I think it has box office potential

What a mess

Looks fun! I

When I first saw the trailer, I thought the actress was too bland but in the movie she was so charming and will really win you over

Loving Kingsman's legs! MacFarland and The Duff are doing OK for small releases Spongebob hanging on Yikes at Chappie!

He is in his 60s so I guess he just is maximizing the opportunities while it's still there

Well I think it's because Kingsman has a more likable lead (plus Colin Firth) unlike Kick Ass

The trades and movie websites are focusing more on Vince Vaughn's newest flop than Chappie's disappointing performance

BH6 won the Oscar and crossed $600M worldwide and the the thread is still about the first look and new trailer

Glad Kingsman is heading to 100M, very enjoyable flick!

I was so surprise how Penguins flopped, didn't expect it to gross under 100M especially that it had a good release date

2nd Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is the lone bright spot this weekend. I wonder if had like 3K screens would it have been at #1?

For 2016, I thought this year

3rd straight weekend of lackluster results. At least it will pick up in the next 2-3 weeks. April after Fast 7 is so uneventful as well.

Birdman and Selma with the lowest drops
