Box: Sloths defeat Ryan Reynolds

1. Zootopia - $60m / $60m / $230m
2. London Has Fallen - $18m / $18m / $50m
3. Deadpool - $16m / $311m / $355m
4. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot - $9m / $9m / $26m
5. Gods of Egypt - $5.5m / $24m / $34m
6. Kung Fu Panda 3 - $4.5m / $135m / $147m
7. Risen - $4m / $29m / $38m
8. Eddie the Eagle - $4m / $12m / $22m
9. Triple 9 - $3m / $11.5m / $17m
10. The Revenant - $3m / $175.5m / $182m

The Other Side of the Door also opens in about 500 theaters, so it probably won't cross $1m. Zootopia opens a very strong month for the box-office. The Disney film has had great marketing and looks set for a very strong run. London Has Fallen will do about half what the first film made, as that film was surprise sleeper in the spring of 2013. There was no need for a sequel. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot will probably do slightly better than Fey's last spring comedy Admission, but not by much. Spotlight is being re-released in 1200+ theaters, but it's available to watch at home. It's final domestic take should be $43-44m. I predicted it would win Best Picture and make about $50m when it first opened, so I guess I didn't do too bad.
