Avengers: Age of Ultron was unable to remain at the top of the box office for a third week as Pitch Perfect 2 rocketed to the top spot with a projected $64 million weekend. The movie which stars Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, and Elizabeth Banks was predicted to debut with roughly $40 million, but female moviegoers have flocked to the sequel in their droves. Mad Max: Fury Road starring Tom Hardy meanwhile came in quite far behind that, earning around $41 million for the weekend.
That means that the critically acclaimed movie from George Miller has only just beaten Avengers: Age of Ultron which looks set to take a respectable $37 million. The R-Rating has no doubt hurt Mad Max: Fury Road, but like the Marvel superhero ensemble, it's performing even better overseas. What did you guys decide to watch this weekend? Let us know in the usual place.
