BOX OFFICE: ROBOCOP Takes The #1 Spot From THE LEGO MOVIE, But Not For Long...

Jose Padhila's RoboCop opened at #1 in North America yesterday despite the adverse weather, although it appears as if The LEGO Movie will remain on top this weekend as the animated feature starring Guardians of the Galaxy's Chris Pratt will continue to dominate.

The weather in parts of the US has had an impact on the box office performance of all films this week, although RoboCop did manage to steal the #1 spot from The LEGO Movie yesterday with a $2.8 million haul. Phil Lord and Chris Miller's animated movie wasn't too far behind though, as it managed to safely hold onto second place with $2.1 million. That brings its current domestic total to $75.6 million after only five days, and The Wrap reveals that it's expected to beat RoboCop over the upcoming Presidents Day weekend. The LEGO Movie is projected to earn as much as $55 million, while RoboCop will take $45 million (although the weather could have an impact on those numbers) Which of these movies are you planning on seeing over the next few days?

I know right! It's not even fake, the guy was genuinely torn up by a badger... when my friend told me I was like, "Whoa... that's messed up... but [frick]in' hilarious!"

Isn't that only like 6 points behind MoS?? Lol. RT don't mean shit.

RoboCop looks great, but not great enough for me to drive 2 hours to a cinema.

Can anybody spare a midget? We've got some experimenting to do.

I'm sorry but the headline alone is just bizzare to even call into question. "Gordon Ramsey's Badger-Eaten Dwarf Porn Star: Just A Myth?"
I never thought that'd ever be a thing in my life.

@Nova

I think Gusto would probably scare the badger away by trying to rape it...

Good point. Any volunteers? Preferably someone suffering from depression and maybe a bit dense.

Stacks seven Bud Lights one on top of the other. That's about 4 feet. That qualifies as a midget, right?

Gusto! Buy a ticket to Wales, we're going badger hunting!

Honestly, loved RoboCop. And $45M is more than was projected. Hope it does well because it definitely sets up a sequel and deserves it. Kinnaman killed it as Murphy.

Shame on anyone who watches RoboCop. You complain about remakes and then you still see it! Idiots.

Lancer1 - 2/13/2014, 11:04 AM
yeah AgentEX@ Kinnaman was very good as murphy ...I liked the cast alot ...but there was something missing I don't know what it was but I would say bring up a better villain for the next installment ...
