_Spectre_ and _The Peanuts Movie_ spent their second weekends at the top of the charts once again, besting a trio of new wide releases.

_Spectre_ notched its second win, earning an estimated $35.4 million for a second-weekend drop just shy of 50 percent. The latest James Bond film, starring Daniel Craig as 007, hasn’t been able to catch _Skyfall’s_ stateside record as the biggest Bond movie ever, and _Spectre’s_ 10-day total is now at $130.7 million, compared to _Skyfall’s_ $160.9 million. Still, _Spectre_ has more than made up ground globally, and in China, it earned more than $48 million, making it the biggest Chinese debut ever for an international 2D film.

_The Peanuts Movie_ also had a solid second weekend, holding on to second place with an estimated $24.2 million and falling 45 percent. The retelling of Charles M. Schulz’s classic comic strip has benefitted from being one of the only family-friendly flicks in theaters right now, and its domestic total is now at $82.5 million.

The new releases didn’t fare as well, and none managed to open in double digits. _Love The Coopers_ led the newcomers, earning third place with an estimated $8.4 million in 2,603 locations. The large ensemble cast includes Diane Keaton, John Goodman, Alan Arkin, Olivia Wilde, Ed Helms, and more, and although the Christmas-themed comedy could have long legs through the holiday season, _Love The Coopers_ only earned a B- CinemaScore, which could affect its longevity.

_The 33_, about the true story of the Chilean mining incident in 2010, took fifth place, opening to an estimated $5.8 million in 2,452 locations. That’s slightly below predictions for the Antonio Banderas-starring drama, although it did earn an A- CinemaScore. _The 33_ was bested by _The Martian_, which, in its seventh weekend, earned $6.7 million for fourth place. It now has a whopping domestic total of $207.4 million, making it the sixth biggest movie of the year.


This weekend’s final new wide release failed to crack the top 10, and _My All American,_ starring Finn Wittrock and Aaron Eckhart in the story of Texas football legend Freddie Steinmark, only earned $1.4 million in 1,565 locations. It played well in Texas and other markets throughout the South, earning an A CinemaScore, but it failed to break out like other faith-based hits like _War Room_.

In limited release, Angelina Jolie Pitt’s _By The Sea_ got off to a rocky start, opening in 10 locations with an estimated $95,444\. The marital drama, which stars Jolie Pitt and Brad Pitt in their first on-screen appearance together since _Mr. & Mrs. Smith_, earned a gloomy per-location average of $9,544.

Also at the specialty box office, _Spotlight_ expanded to 60 locations and earned a solid $1.4 million. Starring Mark Ruffalo, Michael Keaton, and Rachel McAdams, the story of the Boston Globe investigation into the Catholic Church has grossed $1.8 million domestically. The Bollywood musical romance _Prem Ratan Dhan Payo_ also had an impressive weekend, earning $2.4 million in only 286 theaters.


Here are this weekend’s top five at the box office:

**1\.** [**_Spectre_**](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/03/spectre-ew-review)**— $35.4 million**  
**2\.** [**_The Peanuts Movie_**](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/04/the-peanuts-movie-ew-review)**— $24.2 million**  
**3\.** [**_Love The Coopers_**](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/12/love-the-coopers-ew-review)**— $8.4 million**
