The Top 5 this week look to all settle in within about $4million of each other representing a nice spread of films for a number of demographics. But in the end of the weekend it looked like Unknown grabbed the top spot.
BoxOffice Mojo has the estimates:
Unknown – $21,770,000 – Opening
I Am Number Four – $19,400,000 – Opening
Gnomeo and Juliet – $19,238,000 – 2wks
Just Go With It – $18,496,000 – 2wks
Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son – $16,250,000 – Opening
I am eager to see I am Number Four, and being a holiday here in most of Canada (a made up Family Day) I will likely catch that tonight.
Other honourable mentions, after its second week, and up against a $13m Budget, Justin Beiber’s Never Say Never just missed the Top 5 with $13m.
And of course the King’s Speech is still holding on strong at number Seven with $6m more to add to its tally after 13 weeks in release.
What did you see this weekend?
I honestly thought I Am Number Four would be number one, and it only pulled in 19 mil. Oh well, looks like it’s not getting a sequel.
so glade to see biebers movie get knocked out
It’s not that far out. It is still in the sixth spot on its second week. Compared to its $13m budget it has already raked in over $50million.
Thats a qualified success. Hardly worth the suggestive bile you fling at it.
You don’t have to like the artist to recognize his successes. I don’t particularly care for him, but I don’t hate him either. There is no reason to hate on something that has no impact on me.
Odd. Comingsoon.net says I AM 4 got about 22 million. It’ll be interesting to see final numbers.
