Preposterous giant robots battling equally preposterous giant monsters proved to be the key to finally pushing Marvel-Disney’s ‘Black Panther’ from its lofty position atop the worldwide box office this weekend. Universal’s sci-fi sequel “Pacific Rim:” Uprising” debuted to a comfortable $150.5M in revenue worldwide over the weekend, according to estimates compiled by comScore.
In domestic theaters however, Pacific Rim generated just $28.0M in its debut weekend, a smaller take than its predecessor, the Guillermo Del Toro-helmed “Pacific Rim” which generated $37 million when it hit the theaters in 2013.
In international theaters, Black Panther slipped to #4, generating $29.6M, including $16.7M from North American markets and pushing its cumulative revenue north of $1.23bn/ Other movies opening this weekend included “Sherlock Gnomes” Paramount’s animated sequel about, bizarrely enough, garden gnomes, failed to generate much interest from the movie going public and notched up just $10.6M
Wes Anderson’s latest entry, “Isle of Dogs” (Fox Searchlight) scared up $10.6M $1.57 million in just 27 theaters on the strength of solid reviews in the critical press.
