After having one of the best opening weekends in history, Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice had a massive second-weekend decline, losing 68% from its debut opening weekend for a $52.3 million second weekend gross. That's a larger second-weekend dip than superhero movies like Man Of Steel (64%) and Green Lantern (66%) and on par with the second-weekend decline of Fantastic Four (2015) (69%). In terms of overall second weekends, it's the twenty-sixth biggest second weekend ever, putting it just ahead of the second weekend gross of Inside Out and just behind the second-weekend cumes of Shrek The Third and The Passion Of The Christ. It's worth noting also that, while the $27.7 million BvS grossed at Thursday night last weekend certainly boosted its opening weekend, last year's Avengers: Age Of Ultron made only $100,000 less at Thursday night showings and lost only 59% in its second weekend.
