The Martian [Fox]
Absent meaningful competition from the week’s newcomers, “The Martian” wins its second straight (and fourth total) weekend box office.
This week’s victory comes courtesy an estimated $11.4 million in weekend receipts. “Goosebumps,” which follows at #2, earned $10.2 million during the October 30-November 1 weekend.
“Brides of Spies” again follows at #3 ($8.1 million), while “Hotel Transylvania 2” advances one place to #4 ($5.8 million).
“Burnt,” the highest-grossing of the week’s newcomers, arrives at #5. The film earned a paltry $5.0 million from 3,003 screens.
“Our Brand Is Crisis” ($3.4 million, 2,202 screens, #8) and “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse” ($1.8 million, #12, 1,509 screens) also struggled.
