Yea, TLJ should have absolutely crushed that film. It actually did its first weekend, as Jumanji didn't open very big, just $36.2M. But, disappointed fans needed something else to watch and Jumanji filled that void nicely. Jumanji actually did $77.2M more than TLJ in January at the DBO.  I'm actually surprised at how well its legs have been. It's well into March and it just made almost $3M this past weekend. 

Haven't seen Jumanji, yet, but most people say it's pretty good.

Jumangis run at the box office is unbelievable coming in at 936M just shy of that Billion, I have seen it and thought it was ok I'd love to know what magic they used to have such great hold, Spiderman Homecoming with a much bigger marking push and the might of Marvel didnt bet it coming in at just 880M with out Star Wars competition. 

I think it was just a perfect storm.  It had a decent cast.  It was above people's expectations, which were pretty low.  And TLJ didn't offer much of a challenge.
