      <title>'Coco' and Mexico's Day of the Dead rule at box office</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/10395911/coco-and-mexicos-day-of-the-dead-rule-at-box-office</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://i.aaj.tv/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/coco.jpg"&gt;&lt;img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-395912" src="https://i.aaj.tv/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/coco.jpg" alt="coco" width="800" height="480" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;LOS ANGELES: The animated Disney and Pixar hit "Coco" ruled at North American box offices for a second week, figures released Monday showed, beating out superheroes, dramas and Christmas comedies.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The film tells the story of a 12-year-old Mexican, Miguel (Anthony Gonzalez), who longs to become a musician but faces a generations-old family ban on music.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It netted an estimated $27.5 million for the three-day weekend and $110 million since it opened over the Thanksgiving Day holiday, an industry data provider, Exhibitor Relations, said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"Coco," which takes Miguel into the magical Land of the Dead, where trickster Hector (Gael Garcia Bernal) helps him unravel a deep family secret, received a rare A+ rating from audiences surveyed by CinemaScore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In second place again was Warner Bros. film "Justice League," with $16.7 million in its third week out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The all-star cast features Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman and Jason Momoa as Aquaman joining to fend off supervillain Steppenwolf (Ciaran Hinds).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Third, also in its third week out, was Lionsgate's feel-good film "Wonder," which netted $12.1 million.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The movie, starring Julia Roberts, Owen Wilson and Jacob Tremblay, tells the story of a fifth-grade boy with a facial deformity who must deal with other children's shock and bullying when he first attends a mainstream school.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marvel's "Thor: Ragnarok" claimed fourth place with $9.9 million.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The film features the self-effacing humor of Chris Hemsworth as the powerful Norse god and Cate Blanchett as death goddess Hela. "Thor" has netted $291.6 million since its debut five weeks ago.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In fifth place was the Christmas comedy "Daddy's Home 2" from Paramount, netting $7.6 million. It stars Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg as the less-than-competent co-parents of Wahlberg's kids while they cope with their own visiting fathers (John Lithgow and Mel Gibson).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;None of the week's newly released movies cracked the top 10.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rounding out the list were:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"Murder on the Orient Express" ($6.8 million)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" ($4.4 million)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"Lady Bird" ($4.3 million)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"The Star" ($4.1 million)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;"A Bad Moms Christmas" ($3.4 million)&lt;/p&gt;
