The family film “Dolphin Tale 2” and home invasion thriller “No Good Dead” will try to revive the box office from its September swoon this weekend.
The marine mammals rate a slight edge say industry analysts, who see the Warner Bros. sequel coming in at around $20 million and ending the three-week reign of “Guardians of the Galaxy,” with “No Good Deed” not far behind.
That would be good news for the overall box office. Last weekend, which faced the double whammy of schools opening and football season kicking off, was the worst in six years and 2014 is running nearly 6 percent behind last year.
