“Does it almost feel like nothing’s changed at all?”
Neither new release “Pompeii” nor fellow newcomer “3 Days to Kill” was able to break the box office monotony; “The Lego Movie” will reign over the box office for a third consecutive week.
The blockbuster added $7.34 million to its haul Friday, which almost exceeded the combined totals for “Days” (#2, $4.01 million) and “Pompeii” (#3, $3.40 million). Since “Lego” always does its best work on Saturday, its full weekend total likely will be greater than the new releases’ combined sum.
“Robocop” landed in fourth with $2.60 million, while “About Last Night,” lacking the Valentine’s Day push, slid to fifth with $2.28 million.
