A weekend of sequels in the box office

This weekend ‘Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows’ with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law firmly took first place with $40 million dollars in the United States. Sequels took over the weekend and the 3 first spots, but none of them made as much as the originals collected.

Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked!’ took second place with $23.5 million dollars. The squirrels stayed steadily between the best two action movies of the year.  

Surprisingly, ‘Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol’ ended up in third place with $13.6 million dollars. It could be because of the fact that it only premiered in IMAX theaters; we will see what will happen when it premieres in the rest of the theaters, which are cheaper than IMAX.

 

 

The top 10 in the box office are:

1.’Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows’- $40 million

2. Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked!’-$23.5 million

3.’Mission Impossible- Ghost Protocol’-$13.6 million
