The Clown Prince
02-21-2010, 04:44 PM
Only one new movie opened this weekend and it was the Martin Scorsese/Leonardo DiCaprio thriller Shutter Island which took the number one spot with $40.2 million! If it holds strong in the coming weeks, it shouldn't be a problem to reach and exceed it's $80 million production budget.
Last week's number one movie Valentine's Day fell 69% to take the second place spot with $17.1 million and a $87.4 million total.
Bouncing back up one spot to third was Avatar which in week 10 took in another $16.1 million and has pushed it's total now to $687.4 million. It's worldwide total is up to $2,462,821,000.
Coming in fourth place was Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief which made $15.3 million and a $58.7 million total.
And rounding out the top 5 is The Wolfman with $9.8 million and a $50.3 million total.
Out of the top 12 this weekend was only The Blind Side (13th) which leaves having made $1.5 million this weekend and having had a fantastic run with a total now at $247.1 million.
Opening next weekend are two new movies. First up is the comedy Cop Out (http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=53253) (rated R) starring Bruce Willis, Tracy Morgan, Adam Brody, Kevin Pollak, Guillermo Diaz, Seann William Scott, Jason Lee, and Ana de la Reguera.
