G.I. Joe Debuts On Top

Paramount’s G.I. Joe: Retaliation led the box office last weekend with an estimated $41.2 million. The long delayed 3D sequel generated the second largest Easter weekend debut of all-time (behind only the Clash of the Titans). The movie debuted Thursday, although it is behind the 2009 original G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, which didn’t have the advantage of higher priced 3D admissions. However, the sequel cost significantly less to make at $130 million.

3D grosses accounted for 45 percent of the film’s total grosses this weekend, with 9 percent coming from IMAX secrrenings. Most of the movie’s audience was male, with 68 percent and most 25 years old or older.

The Croods experienced a solid second weekend with a take of $26.5 million. Tyler Perry’s Temptation finished third with a box office take of $22.3 million. Temptationis based on one of Perry’s pre-existing plays. It appeals to female moviegoers, who made up 70 percent of the audience.
