The Blind Side Hits A Touchdown, New Moon Eclipsed, Noboyd's Fine, Armored Rubber, Brothers OK & Up In The Air Great



The Blind Side took 3 weeks to reach number 1, but that was fine. It still made 20 million over the weekend. Plus, it has now made 129.2 million dollars, becoming the 4th biggest Sports film ever. It'll likely be the biggest Sports film ever and be the first to make 200 million by the end of the month.

New Moon kept falling, showing that this installment was quite front-loaded. It made 15.7 million dollars and has made 255.6 million. It making 300 million is still likely.

Brothers opened up with 9.7 million. It's an okay opening, though it may have trouble recouping it's 26 million budget.

Armored was mediocre at number 6 in the box office, making 6.6 million dollars.

Everybody's Fine, the largest film this weekend, bombed with only 4 million. This makes another bomb for Robert De Niro, one of the greatest actors of all time and the death of Everybody's Fines studio: Miramax who has been on life support for years now.

Among hold-overs, A Christmas Carol fared best with 7.5 million, holding better than Santa Clause 2 and Elf at this point. It has made 115 million and is ahead of The Polar Express by 6 million dollars.

2012 continued it's good plight at the cinema's with 6.6 million, the same as Armored. When the actual box-office results come in later today, it will be seen if 2012 is at number 7 or 6. 2012 has made 666 million worldwide and 148.7 million here in the USA.

Old Dogs plummeted to 6.9 million dollars and has made 33.9 million. It is likely to make 50 million total.



Up In The Air made 1.1 million dollars at 15 theatres, making 79,00 dollars at each cinema.

Transylmania made only 282,000 dollars at number 21 in only 1,007 theatres. It has the horrid honor of being the worst opening film in 1,00 theatres.

Overall, this weekend was the biggest ever for this time of year, making 94 million dollars.
