Battle at the Box Office 11/12
Posted on November 13, 2012 by Zach
Skyfall had already made over $400 million overseas before it’s debut in the US this past weekend and it easily added another $88 million to it’s total, the best Bond opening ever, crushing Quantum of Solace’s $67.5 million. It’s also the fourth best opening weekend of the year. Wreck It Ralph dropped down to the 2nd place with another $33 million, putting it just shy of $100 million in total. Flight moved down to third with $14.8 million with Argo dropping down to 4th with $6.6 million and Taken 2 held steady and rounded out the top 5 with $4 million. Almost criss crossing, The Man with the Iron Fists dropped to seventh place with $2.6 million while Pitch Perfect jumped up from eleventh back into the top ten to eighth with $2.5 million. In limited release, Lincoln had a pretty impressive $944,308 in only 11 theaters, for almost $86,000 per theater and it goes wide this coming weekend, but can it compete with the juggernaut that is Twilight?
