WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: The Nun easily topped the chart with 53MM, a bit over projections, a sign of the strength of The Conjuring "universe," and -- after last years It -- a sign that horror can score big in September. Crazy Rich Asians places with 13.6MM on a 38 percent drop that is not bad but ends whispers of a 200MM run; even so, a dang fine performance during a fallow period at the cineplex. Peppermint shows with 13.3MM, slightly underwhelming, but probably acceptable against a 25MM budget.  The Meg takes a 6MM bite out of the fourth slot as it approaches 500MM worldwide. Searching rounds out the Top Five with 4.5MM, on track to profitability.
