Box Office Weekend: Coco Holds Post Thanksgiving Box Office
It may look like we made a mistake and ran the same box office results from last week, but we didn’t. In fact, the order of the post-Thanksgiving box office is identical to last week’s holiday results, at least for the first six spots anyway. For the second week, Disney and Pixar’s Coco held the top spot at the box office with $26.1 million, bringing its impressive two-week total to $108.7 million. Justice League held firmly onto second place earning $16.6 million (raising its three-week total to $197.3 million).
Wonder saw its box office from last week cut almost in half as it finished with $12.5 million, putting it in third place, just behind Thor: Ragnarok which brought in $9.7 million to raise its five-week total to $291.4 million. Daddy’s Home 2 saw its receipts cut in half as well as it brought in only $7.5 million in its fourth week of release to round out the top five.
After four weeks, the Agatha Christie adaptation, Murder on the Orient Express looks as though it may be losing steam as it managed only $6.7 million, which was approximately half of its take last week. Making its debut in the top ten this week is Lady Bird with $4.5 million, which brought the film’s five-week total to $17.1 million. See what a hosting gig on Saturday Night Live for a film’s star can do for a film?
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri finished in the eighth spot with just about the same take it had last week, $4.5 million. Meanwhile, The Star fell to the ninth spot with $4 million as it starts to ease its way out of the top ten as does A Bad Moms Christmas which brought in $3.5 million to bring its five-week total to $64.8 million.
