18 Apr

So for two weeks in a row, the race is too close to have a for sure winner.  Kick-Ass is trailing box office veteran How to Train Your Dragon for the top spot this week by about $250,000. 

Both of the new entries this week, Kick-Ass and Death at a Funeral, had respectable grosses, but still came in with less than ideal figures.

Weekend Box Office Results for 4/11/10

11 Apr

As of today, it looks like the Tina Fey/Steve Carell comedy, Date Night, has taken the top spot this weekend.  But, by Monday, it is still possible that Clash of the Titans could take over.  There is less than a $500,000 difference as of today’s estimated figures.

Apart from the top spot war that will be decided for sure tomorrow, How to Train Your Dragon, in its third week of release, is showing some legs with another $20 million plus weekend.

Alice in Wonderland‘s box office reign has come to an end after three consecutive weekends on top.  How to Train Your Dragon secured the top spot with over $40 million.  The animated film seemed to strike a chord with viewers this weekend. 

John Cusack’s Hot Tub Time Machine had a lot of buzz going into the weekend, but only managed to scrape up a little under $14 million.  Avatar finally fell out of the Top 10 after a 15 week run that totaled $740 million.

Third time’s a charm for Alice in Wonderland.  The Tim Burton-directed flick has now topped the box office for three weekends in a row.

14 Mar

Alice extended her reign over the Box Office to two weeks with a large margin victory over her competitors this weekend.

There were a slew of newcomers and most of them performed pretty poorly.  The biggest disappoint has to be Matt Damon’s Green Zone.  It was produced for approximately $100 million and couldn’t even bring in $20 million on its opening weekend.  Robert Pattinson‘s first main stream film after the first two Twilight films, Remember Me, opened modestly and included a slew of mixed reviews.

1-Alice in Wonderland – $62 million
