Box Office Report

A disasterous movie weekend turns into a disasterous movie box office report.

No movie crossed the $11 million mark over this weekend - surprisingly, Babylon A.D. only managed to collect a shameful $9 million after it was expected to make at least three times that amount - the film grossed in that low amount most probably due to the fact that the film received hideous reviews from not only the director, but from critics everywhere. This one debuted at #2. Tropic Thunder remained at #1, while The Dark Knight reclaimed the #3 spot, grossing in another $8 million, its domestic total is currently a record-breaking $502 million - just $98 million away from Titanic's total! The film's worldwide gross stands at $883 million.

Other debuts this weekend include Disaster Movie which debuted at #7, making in an extremely dissapointing $6 million - hopefully this is the end of these damn parodies!

College came in at #15 making $2 million - this is one of the lowest debuts in box office history! On to better news though, with $217 million grossed, Wall-E has leapfrogged 1992's Aladdin as the sixth highest-grosing G Rated movie of all-time! Impressive stuff.

Weekend Box Office Report

Despite good promotion, The House Bunny wasn't able to debut at #1 on the Box Office. At #1 we find Tropic Thunder, once again. The comedy flick grossed in another $16.1 million over the weekend, the film's total currently stands at $65 million. Now, The House Bunny came in at #2, not too far away from #1 though, making 15.1 million dollars on its opening weekend. Not quite as much as it was expected, but more that half of the film's budget, which is good. The Dark Knight falls to #4 and the movie's total stands at an incredible 489 million dollars. Amazing.

Box Office Report: New #1 and Summer's Biggest

We've finally got a new #1 this weekend. Tropic Thunder has topped the Box Office chart this weekend bringing in $26 million. Enough to send The Dark Knight packing to #2. This movie, however, is still grossing a lot more money that new movies like the new animated Star Wars flick. The Dark Knight pulled in $16 million to bring its amazing grand total to 471 million dollars - that's more than enough to make The Dark Knight the second highest-grossing film of all time in the US only behind Titanic which stands at 600 million dollars.

Now, instead of talking about the other insignificant debuts this weekend, let's do a short recap of this summer's huge movie hits and how much they've made. Firt up, Iron Man which managed to collect $317 million in 16 weeks - the DVD for this movie comes out September 30th. Can't wait to buy that. Next, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, flick that managed to make a great $315 million. Huge stuff. Will Smith's Hancock collected 225 million dollars and Disney Pixar's Wall-E has made $214 million so far. Finally, Dreamwork's Kung Fu Panda grossed in $211 million.

Huge summer hits, big numbers, great movies. For a full report, click here.

The Dark Knight Retakes The #1 at the Box Office!

We've got the name of the film of the decade! The Dark Knight has retaken the #1 spot at the Box Office despite falling to #3 last Tuesday. The film, which has been a huge hit, took in another $26 million... check this out, the film has now grossed 441.5 million dollars in the United States alone - becoming the third highest grossing-film of all time in the Domestic Box Office, only behind 1977's Star Wars that collected $471 dollars and 1997's Titanic which grossed $600 million. Can The Dark Knight take down Titanic for the first time in eleven years? Can't wait to see how things shape up!

Pineapple Express Knocks The Dark Knight Down

Finally, for the first time since its release, The Dark Knight has given up the #1 spot! Pineapple Express starring James Franco and Seth Rogen was released yesterday (Aug. 6) and took in over $12 million during the day - more than enough to send The Dark Knight down the chart. Films aren't usually released on Tuesday, but The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 was also released yesterday making a little over $5 million the first day, again, just enough to take the #2 spot. But where's The Dark Knight? Well, the film fell to #3 managing to collect over $5 million - enough to bring its box office total to a mind-blowing 410 million dollars! This movie, in just 20 days, has managed to become the seventh highest-grossing film in the US. Madness! We'll see how things shape up for the weekend, it should be interesting.

The Dark Knight Still at #1!

For three straight weeks The Dark Knight has sat on top of the Box Office collecting millions day after day. This weekend was no different as the film managed to remain at #1 collecting another $43 million to add to its now domestic total of 394 million dollars! If the film continues at this pace, it could become the highest-grossing film in America and possibly in the entire world.

At #2 came in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor which managed to make $42 million - pretty close to what I predicted. The film could've made a lot more if it weren't had been reviewed so badly by critics.

Finally, at #5 came in Swing Vote which made only $6 million. For a full report, click here.

Out on Theatres Today 8/1

Hitting the big screen today, August 1st is The Mummy Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. The film has gotten terrible reviews from critics which will hurt its performance a little in the box office, my question is: will this movie make enough to snatch the #1 away from the record-breaking film The Dark Knight? If I had to make a bet, I'd say that The Dark Knight will stay at #1 and make around $50 million during the weekend, while The Mummy 3 will come in at #2 making somewhere from $25 million to $40 million. We'll see how close I come.

Other film out today is Swing Vote... not sure what it is about exactly, I've only seen the trailer a few times and it hasn't caught my attention. I doubt it will make a big box office debut considering it will only open in a little over 2,000 screens in the US compared to The Mummy's 3,700.

The Dark Knight Continues at #1

Batman really is unstopable! The Dark Knight not only came in at #1 this weekend again grossing $75 million, but it is the fastest movie in history to cross the $300 million mark in just ten days. In fact, it is predicted that if the movie keeps this rate worldwide, it will surpass 1997's Titanic as the highest-grossing film of all time. Titanic made 1.8 billion dollars at the box office worldwide.



Talking about other movies this weekend, the comedy Step Brothers managed to debut at #2 making a nice $30 million, more than it was predicted. Mamma Mia! Falls to #3 making another $17 million - the film's total is now of $64 million. Another debut was The X-Files: I Want to Believe at #4 which made $10 million this weekend.

The Dark Knight is... Unstopable!

The Dark Knight took in $24 million on Monday.

The Dark Knight Owns the Box Office!

The Dark Knight is the new box office king.

Exceeding initial expectations, the film went on to shatter records left and right this weekend.

The most notable: the new Batman film is now the biggest debut ever in U.S. box office history, especially impressive for an opening on a non-holiday weekend.

The Dark Knight took in $155.34 million Fri-Sun.

That beats Spider-Man 3's $151.1 million in 2007.

perezhilton.com

Wow! Unbelievable. The movie IS definitely one of the best ones I've seen in years! If not the best. Christian Bale, Heath Ledger and Maggie Gylenhall are terrific on this film! If you haven't seen it, go do so! I'm planning on going to see this one again next week. For a full box office report, click here.
