Box Office Numbers: Mo Money, Mo Problems
The top three films from this weekend, which mirror last weekend's sales, made more than a combined $100m at the box office. Knowing Hollywood, this will lead into a plethora of endless sequels and spin-offs. We already know that Twilight may or may not be rebooted, Skyfall is just another entry in a long, storied line of James Bond films, and Lincoln... well, let's just say that Lincoln 2: Son of Lincoln should already be in production with J.J. Abrams at the helm. If not, I know what I'll be doing for the rest of the week. The rest of this weekend's box office numbers are below. [via Rentrak] 1. Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2 - $43,070,000 2. Skyfall - $36,000,000 3. Lincoln - $25,020,000 4. Rise of the Guardians - $24,025,000 5. Life of Pi - $22,000,000 6. Wreck-It Ralph - $16,760,000 7. Red Dawn - $14,600,000 8. Flight - $8,600,000 9. Silver Linings Playbook - $4,623,000 10. Argo - $3,875,000 Did you know?

9:00 AM on 05.20.2013 Box Office Numbers: More like Fart Trek Into DarknessSummer's in full swing, yet I've been held back with a ridiculous cold.

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]
9:00 AM on 05.06.2013 Box Office Numbers: Iron Man ExcercisesSomehow, the third installment of a series of exercises known as "Iron Man" topped this weekend's box office. I didn't even know exercise videos were screened in theaters, let alone suitable places for people to even exercise...
9:00 AM on 04.29.2013 Box Office Numbers: NOT Iron Man 3 WeekI'll keep the festivities short for this week. C2E2 was this past weekend, and my body still hasn't recovered from the sensation overload of art, comics, cosplayers, geeks, and nerds. My other self definitely had a busy weeke...

9:00 AM on 03.18.2013 Box Office Numbers: Not-So Incredible Burt WonderstoneI apologize for the lack of a Box Office Numbers last week.
