The
cartoonish, but definitely not-for-kids "Resident Evil: Retribution" in
3-D topped the weekend box office, edging out the cartoonish and
definitely-for-kids re-release of "Finding Nemo" in 3-D.
The
fifth installment in the "Resident Evil" series starring Milla Jovovich
as indestructible zombie fighter Alice earned $21.1 million.
"Finding
Nemo" earned $17.5 million, a bit of a disappointment for Disney/Pixar
considering that Nemo had a built-in audience and was tailor-made for a
3-D conversion. But don't shed any tears for Disney/Pixar, which
reportedly spent $5 million to convert "Nemo" into 3-D so the studio has
already seen a profit.
Also of note: "2016: Obama's America" earned another $2 million at the box office, topping $30 million so far.
Unfortunately,
the studio that released "2016: Obama's America" - Rocky Mountain
Pictures - could not replicate its earlier success with the faith-based
"Last Ounce of Courage," which earned just $1.7 million in more than
1,400 theaters.
