LOS ANGELES — "Kung Fu Panda 4" opened at the top of the North American box office this weekend and "Dune: Part Two" became the year's first film to pass the $150-million mark domestically as movie-world glitterati gathered in Hollywood for Sunday's Oscars ceremony. "Panda," a martial-arts comedy from DreamWorks and Universal, took in an estimated $58.
"Imaginary," a new horror film from Blumhouse Productions and Lionsgate, came in third at $10 million—not a huge figure, but one nearly equaling its modest production cost, a formula that keeps the horror films coming. DeWanda Wise plays Jessica, who rediscovers her childhood teddy bear Chauncey—only to learn he's not nearly as cute and cuddly as she once thought—certainly no Paddington or Pooh.Fourth spot, with $7.
