It was exciting to do the top 20 box office list to see where the movies landed. “Captain America: Civil War” has been a box office smash but this last weekend it met it’s match in the form of bird… little angry ones. In their first weekend in theaters, “Angry Birds” flew past “Captain America” by over $5 million. Although the numbers for the animated hit were lower than expected it was still considered a “soaring” success.
Other movie premieres for this weekend made pretty good strides, but not great “The Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising” and “The Nice Guys” performed well below the expectations while Disney’s “Jungle Book” holds strong in the top five for yet another week.
