Spectre and The Peanuts Movie spent their second weekends at the top of the charts once again, besting a trio of new wide releases.
Spectre notched its second win, earning an estimated $35.4
million for a second-weekend drop just shy of 50 percent. The latest
James Bond film, starring Daniel Craig as 007, hasn’t been able to catch
Skyfall’s stateside record as the biggest Bond movie ever, and Spectre’s 10-day total is now at $130.7 million, compared to Skyfall’s $160.9 million. Still, Spectre has
more than made up ground globally, and in China, it earned more than
$48 million, making it the biggest Chinese debut ever for an
international 2D film.
The Peanuts Movie also had a solid second weekend, holding
on to second place with an estimated $24.2 million and falling 45
percent. The retelling of Charles M. Schulz’s classic comic strip has
benefitted from being one of the only family-friendly flicks in theaters
right now, and its domestic total is now at $82.5 million.
The new releases didn’t fare as well, and none managed to open in double digits. Love The Coopers led
the newcomers, earning third place with an estimated $8.4 million in
2,603 locations. The large ensemble cast includes Diane Keaton, John
Goodman, Alan Arkin, Olivia Wilde, Ed Helms, and more, and although the
Christmas-themed comedy could have long legs through the holiday season,
Love The Coopers only earned a B- CinemaScore, which could affect its longevity.
