From THR:
Fox’s “Avatar” avalanche piled boxoffice higher than any other film for a fourth consecutive weekend, with an estimated $48.5 million tally in the latest frame producing a $429 million domestic cume.Doubly deep foreign grosses give James Cameron’s sci-fi epic a $1.34 billion worldwide cume, the second-highest in history after the filmmaker’s “Titanic,” which cruised to $1.84 billion in 1997-98. Its domestic total is the seventh-best ever after 24 days of release.
The weekend’s three wide releases bowed further down the session rankings.
– Lionsgate’s vampire actioner “Daybreakers,” starring Willem Dafoe and Ethan Hawke, rung up $15 million in fourth place.
– Universal’s romantic comedy “Leap Year,” starring Amy Adams and Matthew Goode, debuted roughly as expected with $9.2 million in sixth place.
– Dimension Films’ Michael Cera-toplined comedy “Youth in Revolt” unspooled limply, with $7 million in ninth place.
Could Avatar actually catch Titanic? And fess up: How many times have you seen Avatar?
Not as many times as i paid to see K9 in the cinema! And thats a fact!
I admit I saw it twice, only to see what the 3D fuss was all about. Meh. Still didn't make up for a weak story and crappy dialogue. And after about an hour, the novelty of 3D wore off.
