‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Still on Top

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ is still king of the box office at number 1 with $36.4 million dollars, with a domestic total of $354.6 million dollars and a grand total of $733 million dollars worldwide. It’s doubtful that it will reach ‘The Dark Knight’ total neither domestically nor worldwide, which were $533.3 million dollars and $1.002 billion dollars respectably.

Len Wiseman’s remake of ‘Total Recall’ premiered at number two with $26 million dollars far from the amount it took to make which was around $140 million dollars, making it a big flop. This isn’t surprising since the main star Colin Farrell has been part of box office failures for most of his career; this one adds one more to his list.

‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days’ the third one of the ‘Wimpy Kid’ series opened at number 3 with $14.7 million dollars, the lowest debut for the film franchise. Since Fox spent only $22 million dollars on it, this won’t affect the studio much.

The Top 10 in the Box Office are:

1. The Dark Knight Rises – $36.4 mil

2. Total Recall – $26 mil

3. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days – $14.7 mil

4. Ice Age: Continental Drift – $8.4 mil

5. The Watch – $6.4 mil

6. Ted – $5.5 mil

7. Step Up Revolution – $5.3 mil

8. The Amazing Spider-Man – $4.3 mil

9. Brave – $2.9 mil

10. Magic Mike – $1.4 mil    

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ is #1

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ continues at number one with $64.1 million dollars, this is below the expectations and is less than ‘The Dark Knight’ had earned at the same point. Unfortunately, because of the current events in Colorado and with the London Olympics 2012 it’s had a rough time and about a 60 percent drop since its opening day.

‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ remains at number two with $13.3 million dollars, giving it the lowest domestic total of any of the ‘Ice Age’ films of $114.8 million dollars. This is not to say that Fox is unsatisfied as surely this one will stay in the top 10 for a while longer.

Fox’s comedy ‘The Watch’ premiered at number three with $13 million dollars, the poorly scripted film had very few interested. The set backs the film had in pre-production with changing the original title of ‘Neighborhood Watch’, as well as its advertising technique had nothing to do with the sum it earned, as critics have agreed it’s not worth watching.

The Top 10 in the Box Office are:

1. The Dark Knight Rises – $64.1 mil

2. Ice Age: Continental Drift – $13.3 mil

3. The Watch – $13 mil

4. Step Up Revolution – $11.8 mil

5. Ted – $7.4 mil

6. The Amazing Spider-Man – $6.8 mil

7. Brave – $4.2 mil

8. Magic Mike – $2.6 mil

9. Savages – $1.8 mil

10. Moonrise Kingdom – $1.4 mil 

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ only $160.9mil in the box office

The final chapter of Batman ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ of course premiered at number one and became the best 2D release of all time, earning $160.9 million dollars. The events of last week in the movie theater shooting in Aurora, Colorado seem to have affected the amount people were expecting it to collect. It certainly didn’t reach the number ‘The Avengers’ made on its opening weekend of $200 million dollars. Nonetheless, Christopher Nolan has broken a record, and surely the movie will be hard to beat for the rest of the summer.

The animated film ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ dropped to the second spot with $ 20.4million dollars. The prehistoric animal film starring Ray Romano, Dennis Leery and John Leguizamo is sandwiched between two very different superhero movies, and it seems to be holding its ground now.

‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ dropped yet another spot to number three collecting $10.9 million dollars. Despite of the fact that this film has some better performances and techniques than its predecessor, it doesn’t seem to have captured the heart of many as that one did.

The Top 10 Movies in the Box Office are:

1. The Dark Knight Rises – $160.9 mil

2. Ice Age: Continental Drift – $20.4 mil

3. The Amazing Spider-Man – $10.9 mil

4. Ted – $10 mil

5. Brave – $6 mil

6. Magic Mike – $4.3 mil

7. Savages – $3.4 mil

8. Tyler Perry’s Madea’s Witness Protection – $2.2 mil  

9. Moonrise Kingdom – $1.8 mil

10. To Rome with Love – $1.4 mil

‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ is #1!

The fourth part of the animated film ‘Ice Age: Continental Drift’ premiered at number one with $46 million dollars. The continuation of the funny story of the three friends that make up a peculiar family has many followers, despite of the fact that many think it’s time for their journey to end.

‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ surprisingly fell to second place with $35 million dollars, although it has already collected 500 million dollars worldwide. It’s expected to take advantage of its time before Batman premieres, which will probably make it go down a few spots.

The obscene teddy bear ‘Ted’ ended up in third place with $22.1 million dollars. This comedy has held on strong since it premiered and continues to do so.
