In the battle of the sequels, "Scream VI" knocked out "Creed III" to dominate the box-office this weekend, but the champ is still in pretty good shape. The sci-fi action thriller "65" also opened this week and performed well enough. The sports comedy "Champions" starring Woody Harrelson, however, couldn't find its audience.
