That Neighbors topped the box office this weekend is as irrelevant as Amazing Spider-Man 2 being in second place. What matters is their respective amounts, and the fact that Neighbors did real damage to the Spidey sequel by sucking up a healthy portion of the audience demos that otherwise might have gone to Spider-Man 2 version 2.0 this weekend. The debut numbers for Neighbors would be eye-popping even in tenth place, while the harsh fall for Amazing Spider-Man 2 would be troubling even if it had topped the box office rankings this weekend.
