Welcome to BOX OFFICE BREAKDOWN, where we discuss this weekends box office results.  The TOP 3 films for the weekend of October 16-18 were GoosebumpsThe Martian and Bridge of Spies.

Let's take a look at how the Top 3 did this weekend...


1. GOOSEBUMPS


Jack Black's latest film, Goosebumps, which is based off of the popular children's book series from the 90's, topped the box office in its opening weekend with a solid $23.6 million, which blew away Sony's original tracking of $12-$15 million.  The film had a modest production budget of $58 million.


2. THE MARTIAN




Ridley Scott's newest science fiction film, The Martian dropped down one spot in its third week, bringing in $21.3 million domestically and an impressive $319 million worldwide on a production budget of $108 million.


3. BRIDGE OF SPIES



The new Steven Spielberg/Tom Hanks Cold War thriller, Bridge of Spies, opened to a slightly underwhelming $15.4 million on a mere $40 million budget.  This is the fourth collaboration between the two, and the first in over a decade following Saving Private Ryan (1998), Catch Me If You Can (2002), and The Terminal (2004).
