It’s a tight race between the still speeding “Sonic 3” and the resurgent “Mufasa” for No. 1, with the hedgehog currently having the edge with an estimated $37.4 million Fri.-Sun. total that is just a 38% drop from its $60 million opening weekend. “Mufasa” is just behind with an estimated $35 million, matching its opening weekend total.

The Lion King’ prequel had a bumpy start, debuting with a meager $35 million. While it's expected to make up some ground, 'Mufasa' still has ways to go.
