Clint Eastwood’s American Sniper remains a box office monster in its second outing, grossing $18.3 million Friday for a projected $63-million plus weekend, putting its domestic total at nearly $200 million by the end of Sunday. The film’s hold is exceptional, underscoring its appeal in Middle America and the boost it’s getting elsewhere from scoring six Oscar nominations, including best picture and best actor (Bradley Cooper). Sniper looks to fall less than 30 percent from its opening weekend. Meanwhile, Johnny Depp’s new film ;Mortdecai’ had one of the worst film openings in the actor’s career earning a mere one point five million dollars.
