It appears that audiences are more loving Disney's latest animated smash, Zootopia. The animated metropolis was off just 17% in its fifth weekend to $20 million, for a huge $275.9 million gross in one month of release. Disney Animation's flick continues to do massive business overseas also, with the worldwide gross approaching $800 million with Japan yet to open. This will likely hit $1 billion worldwide, giving Disney Animation two $1+ billion grossers in the last 3 years. It looks like Pixar may no longer be the animation leader from a commercial perspective.
My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 had a decent hold in its second weekend, off 38% to $11.1 million, for a decent $36.5 million gross in 10 days. The PG-13 comedy will have an R-rated competitor in the form of fellow Universal film The Boss next week, but it should continue to hold decently as it plays to older adults.

Despite God's Not Dead 2's opening in theaters, Miracles from Heaven was relatively unharmed by this. Sony's faith-based entry was off just 22% from Easter weekend to $7.6 million, for a great $46.8 million gross in 19 days. At its current pace, Miracles is likely to wind up near $70 million, in line with recent faith-based hits such as War Room ($68 million) and the first God's Not Dead ($62 million).
The Divergent Series: Allegiant also held better than last weekend, off 39% to $5.7 million, for a still very disappointing $56.4 million pick-up in 17 days. Allegiant will also wind up around $70 million, which is down 47% from Insurgent's final gross ($130 million). 10 Cloverfield Lane surprisingly held on strong, off just 20% to $4.8 million, for a very solid $63.6 million pick-up in 24 days. The critically-acclaimed sci-fi thriller is expected to wrap up around $75 million, very close to where Cloverfield ($80 million) finished.
Opening in just over 1,000 locations, indie release Meet the Blacks had a respectable $4.1 million start ($4,026 per-venue average), opening virtually in line with The Perfect Match from a few weeks back. The Mike Epps comedy was basically under the radar and was able to connect with its target audience. It will probably fade from theaters quickly.
Expanding to a little over 1,000 locations, one of the last films for veteran actor Alan Rickman, Eye in the Sky earned a solid $4.06 million, for a $3,941 per-venue average. With strong reviews (93% on Rotten Tomatoes), the wartime thriller should continue to play well in the coming weeks.
Rounding out the Top 10 in its eighth weekend was the superhero smash Deadpool, which was off just 29% to $3.5 million. The Merc with a Mouth is at a sensational $355.1 million since its debut 56 days ago and will end up just a few million behind The Passion of the Christ for the biggest R-rated movie ever in the U.S. Deadpool also will be happy to know that he may wind up finishing ahead of Batman v. Superman domestically. (the Fox smash is at $755 million worldwide also)
And that's about it. Next weekend Melissa McCarthy returns for the comedy The Boss, which is tracking for a debut in the high-teens millions. Unless the superhero mash-up falls hard again, it will likely be another weekend on top for Batman v. Superman. Stay tuned.
