Box Office Top 20: 'Beauty' adds $90.4 million in weekend 2

Disney's live-action "Beauty and the Beast" performed even better than expected in its second weekend in theaters, adding $90.4 million to its North American grosses, which now tally at $319 million. "Beauty and the Beast" easily topped the crop of newcomers - including Lionsgate's "Power Rangers," which got off to a solid start with $40 million - and a few less successful debuts as well. The sci-fi thriller "Life," starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds opened in fourth place, behind "Kong: Skull Island," with a middling $12.5 million, while the big screen take on "CHIPS" only managed to bring in $7.7 million in its first weekend in theaters for a seventh place start.
