Box Office Numbers: Jack Reacher can't reach (around) top
The Jack Reacher/reach-around joke will never get old. When I die, I hope there's a reach around pun on my tombstone, complete with a silhouette of Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher. Unfortunately, Tom Cruise and his reaching around wasn't enough to overtake the box office this weekend as the film took in a measly $15.6m in comparison to the incumbent The Hobbit and its $36.7m. Judd Apatow's This is 40 followed in third place with $12m. I haven't seen it yet, but the idea of a Knocked Up sequel sounded kind of boring to me, but that could be because I wasn't a huge fan of Knocked Up. The rest of the box office numbers are below. [via Rentrak] 1. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - $36,705,000 2. Jack Reacher - $15,600,000 3. This is 40 - $12,030,690 4. Rise of the Guardians - $5,900,000 5. Lincoln - $5,633,000 6. The Guilt Trip - $5,390,000 7. Monsters, Inc. - $5,040,000 8. Skyfall - $4,700,000 9. Life of Pi - $3,800,000 10. Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2 - $2,600,000 Did you know?

9:00 AM on 05.13.2013 Box Office Numbers: The Great CatsbyThe Great Gatsby had a moderately decent opening weekend, pulling $51m+ in ticket sales. However, that wasn't enough to take down the superhero-filled Iron Man 3. Maybe if Baz Luhrmann tapped into his feline alter-ego, Baz Purrman, and created The Great Catsby. No yarn or mice would ever be safe again! The rest of the weekend's box office numbers are below. [via Rentrak]
