GravityGravity and Captain Phillips stayed at No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, to beat a host of newcomers. Carrie  topped out at $17 million to come in No. 3. Sony’s three films — Captain PhillipsCarrie and Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2 — claimed spots No. 2 through No. 4 on the box office chart, with Cloudy 2‘s total domestic gross now at $93.1 million.
