Weekend Results: 10th to 13th April 2014 - Lego Movie builds a lead over Captain America while Divergent can only manage bronze......

This weekend saw 3 films open wide, but none of them were able to tip the top 2 films from their perch.  Last weekends runner up, The Lego Movie managed to hold an impressive 10% on it's way for a further 5.2m and 14.5m running total.
This has placed the Lego Movie now on track (if wasn't already) for a total above 30m and likely #1 film from Easter.  Last weekends winner, Captain America The Winter Soldier, slipped to 2nd dipping 40%.  Thor 2 last year dipped 39% for a running total of 14.1m.  TWS has managed to make 12.2m so far which is already more than the first Captain America film made back in 2011.  As it stands, CA2 is on target for total above 20m but he best beware cause something webbed comes his way (wonder how many times i've used that saying regarding spider-man).  Third belonged to the highest opener of the weekend.  Divergent managed to make 3.2m over the weekend which compared to my overly enthusiastic prediction, was disappointing.  Still Divergent hasn't been so successful outside the United States and it also only opened on a low 233 screens especially when you compare this to films like CA2 which still enjoy an impressive 571 screen time.  Fourth was another new opener in The Grant Budapest Hotel.  unlike divergent above it, it wasn't expected to figure in the top 5, but managed the highest top 20 average on only 108 screens.  It made 1.8m for the weekend.  Rounding out the 5 was Mr Peabody and Sherman which saw a 36% holiday fueled increase after last weekends crash and burn.  Peabody is now somewhat recovering with nearly 8m in the kitty.  Peabody should be able to manage it's way above 10m from this point.
