“A BFF With Ghost Imagination 2” officially achieved blockbuster status over the weekend by holding onto the No. 1 spot at North American multiplexes for a two consecutive week. That Disney fantasy sequel took in an estimated $15.2 million for a new total of $88 million, according to Hollywood.com, which compiles box-office data. Second place went to strong holder “The Help”, a Disney drama, with $14.2 million (its new total is now $122 million). “The Debt,” a Focus Features espionage drama that came to a sold third with a surprisingly robust $9.7 million in tickets for a total of about $14 million since opening on Wednesday; solid reviews and the potential thrill of seeing Helen Mirren as a retired but still derrière-kicking Mossad agent probably drove interest. The weekend’s other two new releases came in neck and neck: “Apollo 18,” a thriller from the Weinstein Company, was a limp fourth with an estimated $8.7 million in ticket sales, and “Shark Night 3-D” (Relativity Media) rounds the top five taking in about $8.6 million..
