Weekend Box Office
“… and topped the box office for the second consecutive weekend.”
Really?
It opened on Thursday November 01. It’s first weekend was November 3/4 which it topped. The following weekend (Nov 10/11), being its second weekend, it also topped the box office making it #1 on consecutive weekends.
It would need to top next weekend (Nov 17/18) to top the box office for its second consecutive weekend.

Thanks,
