Box: There has already been movies called 'The Way Back' and 'The Way, Way Back', so the Ben Affleck movie should have three 'Way''s. Ha - threeways!

1. Onward - $45m / $45m / $160m
2. The Invisible Man - $16m / $54m / $90m
3. Sonic the Hedgehog - $9m / $142m / $165m
**The Way Back - $9m / $9m / $30m
5. The Call of the Wild - $7.5m / $58m / $78m
6. Emma - $3.5m / $5.5m / $16m
7. Bad Boys For Life - $3m / $202m / $210m
8. My Hero Academia: Heroes Rising - $2.5m / $13.5m / $19m
**Birds of Prey - $2.5m / $83m / $88m
10. Impractical Jokers: The Movie - $2m / $10m / $15m

Pixar's latest opens an empty March. It'll probably be their lowest performer since The Good Dinosaur, though it should outgross that film's $123m. Cars 2 and A Bug's Life did $153m and $163m, respectively. This will probably fall in line with those. The Ben Affleck vehicle The Way Back also opens. Reviews are solid, but buzz seems very light. Affleck has always been hit and miss. It might have done solid business if it had been a PG-13/basketball movie. Emma expands wide after two very good weekends in limited.
