Weekend Box Office Report

It was another good box office weekend. The top three spots managed to take in a good amount of money to add up to their gross total. Coming in at #1, National Treasure: Books of Secrets debuts with over $45 million grossed. Down to #2, I Am Legend took in another $33 million, for an amazing total of $137 millions grossed so far, while Alvin and the Chipmunks settle at #3 taking in $28 millions. The group's total now stands at a great and unexpected 84 million dollars. Great movies these are. Other debuts include Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street which comes in at #5 taking in a dissapointing $9 millions, while P.S. I Love You came in at #6 with just 6 million made. Sad numbers on the bottom half of the top ten. To check out more numbers, click here.

Weekend Box Office Report

I Am Legend and Alvin and the Chipmunks take the top spots taking in $75 million and $45 million, respectively. It's been months since we've got such great box office numbers over a weekend - these two films grossed a lot more than what was predicted. Now, I got a chance to watch both movies yesterday, and I was pleasantly surprised, I had a blast! I recommend them both! Check out the top 10 here.
