Last Week’s Results

We all knew that the second weekend of Batman would trounce this week’s new releases, but what we didn’t expect was a multi-week holdover like Ice Age: Continental Drift to pass both The Watch and Step Up: Revolution. Both films can easily be considered bombs, but the P&A for The Watch was much higher making it the more sizable flop, considering it only barely beat out Step Up 4 for third place for the week.

Top 10 Films

  1. The Dark Knight Rises, $62,101,451
  2. Ice Age: Continental Drift, $13,352,646
  3. The Watch, $12,750,297
  4. Step Up: Revolution, $11,731,708
  5. Ted, $7,353,150
