Monday Morning Box Office Report: Guardians of the Galaxy Wins Again by Default

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy continues to chug along on impulse power as the lack of new releases created the equivalent of a box office black hole. The top 12 made just over $50 million combined, which is the lowest total we’ve seen in two years and Guardians led the pack with a paltry $10 million. The rest of the top 10 was almost identical to the previous week as well, although As Above, So Below dropped a couple of spots while Lucy slipped past The Expendables 3 to re-enter the top 10. The week’s only new release, The Identical, bucked the trend of recent faith-based films and tanked hard, opening in 11th place with $1.91 million. Next weekend, the Guardians may finally meet their match in the form of… Dolphin Tale 2.
1. Guardians of the Galaxy — $10.2M
2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles — $6.5M
3. If I Stay — $5.8M
4. Let’s Be Cops — $5.4M
5. The November Man — $4.2M
6. As Above, So Below — $3.7M
7. When the Game Stands Tall — $3.7M
8. The Giver — $3.6M
