The Movie Posters Resource page: Your guide to the latest movie poster releases and covering original movie posters, vintage movie posters and reproduction movie posters.Movie Box Office: December 19 – 21, 2008
It was a quiet, quiet weekend for Hollywood – and they were blaming the weather across the Northern states for their woes, but it was actually looking like disinterest on the part of moviegoers. Jim Carrey trumped Will Smith, as “Yes Man” pulled the number one spot with just over $18 million. In what could be the end of Smith’s streak of $100 million plus movies, the vaguely marketed “Seven Pounds” took second place with just shy of $15 million.
The other new release was the animated family adventure, “The Tale of Despereaux“, which scurried into third place with $10.1 million. The movie did feature some impressive voice talent with Matthew Broderick, Robbie Coltrane, Frances Conroy, Tony Hale, Ciaran Hinds, Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Kline, Frank Langella, Christopher Lloyd, William H. Macy, Stanley Tucci, Tracey Ullman, Emma Watson and Sigourney Weaver. It also managed to beat out the top two movies this week with a better Rotten Tomatoes rating of 52% (Seven Pounds got “pounded” with a 28% rating).
Last weekend’s full top 10 was as follows:
1. Yes Man – $18.3 M
2. Seven Pounds – $14.9 M
3. The Tale of Despereaux – $10.1 M
4. The Day the Earth Stood Still – $9.9 M
5. Four Christmases – $7.7 M
6. Twilight – $5.2 M
7. Bolt – $4.1 M
8. < Slumdog Millionaire – $3.1 M
9. Australia – $2.2 M
10. Quantum of Solace – $2.1 M
