Australian Box Office Report: Look out behind you, Batman and Superman!

Hello folks.

Well, we did it. If you we’re on my team and rooting for a new box office contender, you’ve got one in the sequel to Snow White and The Huntsman.

Although it’s not breaking any big records, The Huntsman Winter’s War overtook both Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice to take the top spot.

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice is now sitting at third spot with Zootopia remaining strong in second place. Last weekend also saw the indie film Rams walk off with a respectable $126, 551. Well done to them!
