More context on the movies

• The Super Mario Galaxy Movie: this was the story of the weekend by a mile. It posted the biggest Hollywood opening of 2026, powered by spring break, Easter timing, and broad family turnout. Even with mixed reviews, audiences showed up in force. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
• Project Hail Mary: it got knocked out of the top spot, but a $30.7M third weekend is still a major hold. Its domestic total is already $217.2M, and globally it kept building toward blockbuster status. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
• The Drama: A24’s new release opened well with $14.4M, giving the market a solid adult-skewing counterprogrammer behind Mario’s family dominance. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
• Hoppers: the family audience now has new competition, so the 52.3% drop was sharp but understandable. Even so, it is still one of the year’s biggest original-animation successes. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
• Reminders of Him: it is fading, but still hanging around the top five after four weekends and nearing $45.4M domestic. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
• A Great Awakening: a modest debut, but good enough to crack the top 10 in a frame dominated by one massive event title. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
• They Will Kill You: the horror drop was rough at -61.2%, which fits the broader sense that recent horror entries have started stepping on each other. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
• Dhurandhar The Revenge: domestic business cooled, but it remains a much bigger worldwide story than a U.S./Canada one. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}
• Ready or Not 2: Here I Come: a decent hold for a sequel that looks more like a modest genre performer than a breakout. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
• Undertone: the little horror breakout kept squeezing out dollars and is now up to $19.5M domestic, which is a strong result for its scale. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}

Overall context

• This was an event-movie weekend. Mario didn’t just open big — it completely changed the shape of the frame and pushed the full domestic market close to $196M. The year-to-date box office is now up 26% versus 2025, which is a meaningful sign of life for theaters. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
• Just like some of the earlier weekends we tracked, the holdovers still mattered: Project Hail Mary stayed huge, Hoppers kept adding to a strong run, and The Drama gave the chart some variety. But this weekend clearly belonged to Mario. :contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}
