For the seventh straight week, a new film at the box office is the new number one. There was little doubt The Super Mario Bros. Movie would dominate, but I don't think anyone saw how much it would make. The Nintendo/Illumination film make a whopping $166 million over the long Easter weekend. That's good for the third-best Easter weekend opening ever behind Furious 7 and Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Elsewhere, the numbers two, three, and four film were all real close with John Wick: Chapter 4, Ben Affleck's Air, and Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves around $15-16 million. Those are some pretty solid numbers for counterprogramming to the kid-centric Mario. Movies are back, baby!
