WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Captain Marvel easily repeats atop the chart with 69.3MM on a 55 percent drop; that percentage isn't uncommon for standalone origin stories in the MCU, and it's from a bigger debut than some.It could wind up grossing closer to 400MM domestic and a Billion worlwide as moviegoers gear up for Avengers: Endgame.The debut of Wonder Park places wih 16MM, a bit better than projected but still dodgy against a reported 80MM budget, though Nick is planning to make it a TV series, which may boost the home market. Five Feet Apart shows with13.1MM, again a bit better than expected and just fine against a reported 7MM budget.
