Weekend Box Office Report: ‘Deadpool’ Shatters Records and Leaves ‘Zoolander 2’ in the Dust

Oh, and Zoolander 2 also opened.

Option three was apparently a popular one this year, as the overall top 10 for the week was the healthiest it has been in awhile, with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 fending off The Good Dinosaur and Creed, which still performed well.

As expected, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 topped the box office charts this weekend. But like the war in the movie itself, it all feels like something of a hollow victory.
