Super Mario Galaxy Movie dominates

Despite a slight overall dip in domestic box office receipts, the Mario sequel added another $35 million this weekend.

The film's success has overshadowed new releases, including Lee Cronin's 'The Mummy,' which struggled to find an audience. 'Project Hail Mary' also showed strong staying power, dropping only 15% in its fifth weekend.

Industry analysts credit the Mario franchise's broad appeal across generations for its continued dominance in a quiet theatrical window.
