Box Office Results

There’s a new number one movie at the box office.  The Rock took down the Watchmen this weekend.  Race To Witch Mountain came in at number one at the box office making $25 million.  Watchmen came in at number two with over $18 million.  It lost more than 67% in ticket sales from last week.  I guess it didn’t make a very lasting impression on the audience if the numbers for the movie were going to drop that much.  Movies like this don’t usually stay at number one for very long.  They usually drop after the second or third week.  This would make one more movie that didn’t stay at number one very long. I’m trying to keep track of how long the number one movie will stay number one.  I want to make a prediction about Race To Witch Mountain.  I predict that the movie will stay number one for this week and maybe next week (depending on what is coming out this week), and then it will drop. 

There were two other wide releases this weekend.  The Last House On The Left and Miss March debuted this weekend.  The Last House On The Left came in at number three with over $14 million.  I’m glad this movie had a good debut because I’m going to try and see it.  It looks like it could be really good.  Miss March didn’t fare as well as The Last House On The Left.  The movie came in at number 10 with over $2 million. 

Here are the Top 10 movies:

  1. Race To Witch Mountain - $25 million
  2. Watchmen - $18.1 million
  3. The Last House On The Left - $14.7 million
  4. Taken - $6.7 million
  5. Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes To Jail - $5.1 million
  6. Slumdog Millionaire - $5 million
  7. Paul Blart: Mall Cop - $3.1 million
  8. He’s Just Not That Into You - $2.9 million
  9. Coraline - $2.6 million
  10. Miss March - $2.3 million
