WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows tops the chart with 35.2MM...but that's only a little more than half of the 2014 reboot's opening take against a 135MM budget. Even the 69.25MM worldwide total isn't looking too great here. X-Men: Apocalypse places with 22.3MM...but that's a 66 percent drop from its opening. Overseas grosses may be needed to keep the franchise going...and crossing the 400MM mark worldwide suggest they may just make it.  Me Before You shows with 18.3MM which means the teen tearjerker may see profit on the big screen, if the marketing costs were reasonable.  Alice Through The Looking Glass takes the fourth slot on a nasty 60 percent drop in its second weekend. Oof. The Angry Birds Movie rounds out the Top Five with 9.8MM on a 48 percent drop and part of the overall pattern of bad holds this weekend.
