Weekend Box Office Results (8/29/14 - 9/1/14)

9/2/2014

Comments

 
Guardians of the Galaxy continues its hot streak, staying atop the box office during this 4-day holiday weekend, while also surpassing Captain America: The Winter Soldier's $260 million to become the highest grossing domestic film of the year. Marvel's blockbuster film of lesser-known comic book heroes has been an incredible success and is soon to pass the $300 million mark. It also looks to easily hold onto its position next week, with weak competition being released. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles remains in 2nd place, raising its total to $166 million nationwide. If I Stay and Let's Be Cops also hold onto their same positions as last week, while the found-footage horror film As Above, So Below ($10.3M) just narrowly beat out The November Man ($10.2M) for the 5th spot, in our closest Movie Kombat battle yet! Without a strong release coming out later this week, I expect next week's box office results to look awfully similar to this week's. Though with Forrest Gump being rereleased on IMAX for its 20-year anniversary, perhaps Forrest might be able to run his way into the top 5!
