Weekend projections: Mario cruises to fourth win, Are You There God? comes in third

The Super Mario Bros. Movie will easily win the weekend, according to studio estimates released on Sunday morning. The video game hero and his pals will pick up another $40 million in North America, taking it past $490 million here. With another projected $68.3 million internationally, it’ll have over $530 million outside North America by the end of the weekend, and pass $1 billion worldwide on Sunday. The new releases are mostly coming in behind expectations, with Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret the best-performing among them, earning $6.8 million on its debut.

Weekend predictions: Mario to beat five new rivals for box office glory

After no less than six new wide releases last weekend, five more films arrive in over 600 theaters this time around, but none will topple The Super Mario Bros. Movie as the top-earning film in North America. Evil Dead Rise will most likely come the closest, and Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant should find a place in the top ten. The fortunes of Beau is Afraid, Chevalier, and Somewhere in Queens is harder to predict. One or two of them could hit the top ten, but it seems unlikely all three will manage the feat.

Theater counts: Super Mario once again widest release as four new features arrive in theaters

Currently enjoying a 15-day domestic haul of over $371 million, The Super Mario Bros. Movie again stands alone as this week’s widest release. Last weekend, the film scored the best second weekend ever for an animated movie. Only dropping 21 cinemas this week, the blockbuster film is still widely available in 4,350 locations.
