Box Office: How Badly Did Jem and the Holograms Bomb?
New releases Rock the Kasbah, Jem and the Holograms and The Last Witch Hunter all bombed at the box office this weekend, and The Martian ($15.9 million) overtook Goosebumps ($15.5 million) to reclaim the No. 1 spot, Box Office Mojo reports.
Holding steady in third place was Bridge of Spies with $11.3 million. Vin Diesel's The Last Witch Hunter brought in a meek $10.8 million, landing at No. 4, followed by Hotel Transylvania 2 with $9 million.
Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension opened in a disappointing sixth place with $8.2 million. Despite opening wide this weekend, Steve Jobs rose only four spots to No. 7 with $7.2 million. Rounding out the Top 10 were Crimson Peak (No. 8, $5.5 million), The Intern (No. 9, $3.8 million) and Sicario (No. 10, $2.9 million).

Failing to crack the top 10 were Bill Murray's latest, Rock the Kasbah, and the highly-anticipated Jem and the Holograms adaptation.
Rock the Kasbah's $1.5 million is the fifth worst opening of all time for a film playing in more than 2,000 theaters, Box Office Mojo reports, behind Jem and the Holograms, which took in just $1.3 million. That's the worst opening ever for a film playing in more than 2,400 theaters.
