Box Office Report

A domestic opening weekend haul of $92 million seems like a lot of money, until it's compared with the cash earned by earlier Marvel movies that opened on the same weekend

The cartoon birds got buzz-sawed by a Marvel superhero, who came back from second place most of the weekend to triumph in the end with $41.4 million. Draft Day, starring Kevin Costner as an NFL GM trying to land the top college player, pulled in just $9.75 million

Marvel's latest movie, starring Chris Evans as the eponymous hero alongside heavy-duty stars like Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Redford, clocked in at $96.2 million on its opening weekend, the highest-ever for April

The biblical drama directed by Darren Aronofsky and starring Russell Crowe rises above a flood of controversy to earn a $44 million opening, while Arnold Schwarzenegger's new movie, Sabotage, sinks at $5.3 million

The latest Young Adult Girl Power movie registers $56 million for the year's second highest opening weekend behind only The LEGO Movie, while Hollywood may want to retire Kermit and company after Muppets Most Wanted doesn't bring home the green

The DreamWorks animated flick about the intelligent beagle and his human companion beat out the Aaron Paul car-crash thriller at the weekend box office, raking in about $21.2 million based on preliminary studio estimates
