Memorial Day Weekend runs through Monday, but based on the holiday weekend’s first three days, it is clear which film will prevail as #1.<\/p>\n
“X-Men: Apocalypse” is by far the weekend’s biggest draw at US cinemas. The film will earn an estimated $65.0 million during the first three days of the weekend.<\/p>\n
While that markedly trails the $90.8 million earned by previous “X-Men” film “Days Of Future Past” during the first three days of Memorial Day weekend in 2014, it easily ranks as this weekend’s best tally.<\/p>\n
It is comfortably outperforming “Alice Through The Looking Glass,” which is set to gross a disappointing $28.1 million across the three-day weekend. Predecessor “Alice In Wonderland” earned a far stronger $116.1 million in its first outing.<\/p>\n
“The Angry Birds Movie,” last weekend’s leader, is third for the three-day period with $18.7 million. “Captain America: Civil War” takes fourth with $15.1 million, while “Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising” grabs #5 on the strength of $9.1 million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[36,1050],"tags":[6510,6378,6398,6445,6444],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
