Weekend Box Office Report: 'Oblivion' Obliterates the Competition

Jacob Hall — Sun, 21 Apr 2013 18:47:44 +0000

Tom Cruise and science fiction are a powerful combination. Although the opening weekend of 'Oblivion' didn't break any records big or small, it's a more than solid start for a non-franchise, non-sequel, non-reboot.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Croods' and 'Olympus Has Fallen' Rise to the Top

Jacob Hall — Sun, 24 Mar 2013 17:41:18 +0000

You can't imagine two films more different than 'The Croods' and 'Olympus Has Fallen,' but right now the two of them sit on top of the box office chart, both temporarily linked by the fact that a bunch of people apparently wanted to see them this weekend. It's the first time in forever that two films have opened to over $30 million at the same time...but it wasn't golden for all of the new releases.

Weekend Box Office Report: A Good Day to be 'A Good Day to Die Hard'

Jacob Hall — Sun, 17 Feb 2013 19:27:11 +0000

In retrospect, it's easy to say "Of course the new 'Die hard' movie was going to open at number one at the box office!" but you can bet Bruce Willis and company were a little worried. After all, 'A Good Day to Die Hard' opened in the wake of the failure of 'The Last Stand,' 'Parker' and 'Bullet to the Head,' three other macho, R-rated movies starring modern action icons. However, the strength of the 'Die Hard' brand seems to have broken that trend: John McClane's fifth outing made $25 million over the weekend.
