Box Office: New Moon Falls, Blind Side Hits A Touchdown, Carol Lifts Holiday Spirits, 2012 Stays, Old Dogs Not Quite A Dog, Fox Not So Fantastic



New Moon won, but it was The Blind Side that struck up the news. New Moon made 42.5 million, dropping 70.2% from last weekend, one of the biggest drops of the year. It made 10,515 dollars at each cinema it played at. It has now made 230 million total.

The Blind Side went up 17.6%. This is a rare as the yeti in Hollywood and was the
4th smallest drop at the Box Office ever. It has now made 100.2 million and will soon surpass the Proposal to become Sandra Bullock's biggest film ever.

Old Dogs made 16.6 million. It wasn't quite a flop though thanks to it only costing 35 million to make. The marketing, though, kept it from becoming really big. It has made 24 million right now.

The Fantastic Mr. Fox made 7 million. Like Old Dogs, the film isn' quite a bomb thanks to it's low budget.

2012 stayed at No.3, the same spot it was last weekend. It has now made 138.7 million and is behind The Day After Tomorrow by 14.4 million.

The only other new release was Ninja Assassin. It made 13.1 million and 21 million thus far.

A Christmas Carol made 16 million and made 106 million so far. It's way ahead of The Polar Express and Santa Clause 2 at this point, though behind Elf by 23 million.

The Princess and The Frog made 712,000 at only 2 theatres and had a theatre average of 356,000, the 3rd best ever. It will go wide December 11.

The Road had the best theatre average in the Top 12, with 13,000 pet theatre (The Princess and The Frog was at number 18)

The weekend's total gross was 176 million. This made it the 2nd biggest November weekend ever, behind last week.

We have now ended the biggest november on record. Plus, with this weekend, 2009 became the biggest year ever and by December 2009 will likely make a record: It'll be the first year ever to have sold 10 billion dollars worth of tickets.
