Weakend Box Office

PAIN GAINS: Michael Bay’s relatively low-budget (for him) Pain and Gain topped the Weakend Box Office tally for studio Paramount Pictures, racking in $20m at the box office for a per-screen average of $6k, more than enough to top the second week of Universal’s Tom Cruise-starring sci-fi thriller Oblivion, which added $17m to bring its total to nearly $65m in two weeks. WB’s nifty, old-school Jackie Robinson biopic 42 continued to score for Warner Bros., with another $11m for a three-week haul of $69m, good for third place. The other debut goes to Lions Gate’s comedy The Big Wedding, which scored $7.5m in 2,633 theaters for a per-screen average of $2.8k and #4, while Fox’s animated The Croods rounds out the Top 5, tallying another $6.6m to give it a six-week gross of $163m. Hitting theaters this Friday is the blockbuster Iron Man 3. (4/29p)
