On the extended Presidents’ Day weekend, Warner Bros.’ animated The LEGO Batman Movie was the hero America deserves, as it led the box office again with $42.7 million. Universal’s romance sequel Fifty Shades Darker dropped by a lower second-weekend percentage than its predecessor, taking the runner-up spot with $22.6 million. Universal’s historical action epic The Great Wall was the top debut with $21.5 million and third place. Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema’s R-rated action comedy Fist Fight started in fifth place with $14.1 million.
