Monday Morning Box Office Report: Spectre Shaken But Not Stirred

boxofficespectre2

It was another successful weekend for James Bond as Spectre dropped 49% but was never really in danger of losing its position at the top of the box office. Spectre and The Peanuts Movie easily repeated at #1 and #2 with $35 million and $24 million respectively. The holiday comedy Love the Coopers was the highest grossing new release and it came in a distant third with $8.4 million, followed by The Martian which is still in the top 5 after seven weeks and is now sixth highest grossing movie of 2015. The Chilean miner drama The 33 rounded out the top 5. Elsewhere, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo opened at #8 with $2.4 million, making it the fourth largest Bollywood opening of all-time in North America, while Angelina Jolie’s By the Sea failed to even crack $100,000, which is not great despite playing on just 10 screens.
