"The Purge: Anarchy" places No. 2 with $28.4M, while "Planes: Fire & Rescue" underwhelms with $18M; Richard Linklater's "Boyhood" quickly morphs into a hit at the specialty box office.

This weekend brought more bad news for the summer box office, with revenue in North America tumbling 24 percent over the same frame last year as a trio of new films -- The Purge: Anarchy, Planes: Fire & Rescue and Sex Tape -- all did less business than expected.

Fox's Dawn of the Planet of the Apes had no trouble staying at No. 1 in its second weekend, holding better than any previous summer tentpole. The Fox sequel fell 50 percent to $36 million for a domestic total of $139 million.
Universal's The Purge: Anarchy came in No. 2 as it opened to $28.4 million. While that's a solid number for a horror title, the modestly budgeted sequel trailed behind The Purge, which debuted to $34.1 million in June 2013. Anarchy, costing $9 million to make, received a B+.

The Purge

Cameron better hope Annie smashes this Christmas. But that trailer looks a mess.

They'll need JT next time.

The Purge: Anarchy was so good! Apes was great also.

Apes 2 is the best movie I've watched this year so far

I don't know why they thought anyone would be rushing out to see two middle aged people making a sex tape or something

The movie looked a mess, and their demographic that they were trying to market to was confusing and all over the place.

Aw that suck, I'm still going to go see it next weekend!

The movie looked beyond awful.

what did they expect... Diaz is a box office poison

What kind of BS?

Her roles lately though.

Gurl please...

And those are just recent ones, get your facts right sweetheart
I'm sure Sex Tape will do business around what The Other Woman did worldwide, which will be just fine.

Welp. I have no interest in seeing it either, not my type of movie.

What happens in Vegas is not a recent one sis... yes she have a hit here and there, but generally she produces more flops than hits...

So does Jennifer Aniston and lots of others. Cameron Diaz cannot be called Box Office poison anyhow, because it's just not right
