Box office: Gnomeo brings everyone in the Court

The third weekend was a charm for Disney's Gnomeo and Juliet. While it had a modest drop from the previous weekend, the two new films - yes could including movie, I said # 1 would be, but we get to it at the moment - draw much audience. Gnomeo and Juliet came at the top in a weekend, in terms of box office receipts was not groundbreaking.

The era of the computer generated animation is not long gone, and this is not only thanks to PIXAR. With films such as confused and now Gnomeo and Juliet builds to show Disney, you are the force, with this type of film count when it comes. For the immediate future is flooded with as animated fare. Two computer animated films in - Disney's Mars needs moms and Rango - March and April - Rio and behind the light led to beat! The animated market is flooded, and with summer right around the corner, its appearance right a success for the industry, as well as be.

R-rated fare can say not the same thing for yourself. During Hall pass this weekend not tank exactly it, you continue to prove that the Farrelly brothers are not quite the box office Prince, they were 13 or 10 years ago. Hall pass is fourth Farrelly Brothers film in a number of films that go under back to 2003, either double digits or only in the teen area are open. Their upcoming three Stooges project runs in hooks for years now, and Hall may still pass from returning to any type of form another speed bump on the way to this film come to fruition. I'm not a sad to hear that.

I am sad to hear, but you go angry, the film I predicted # 1 this weekend with $20 million, would be hardly got to 1 / 4 of that. Reject this week I take report furiously to snakes on a plane compared, but I was shocked to see, it was open for the film not even able to get the $ 13.8 million. Drive angry debuted to lower numbers than last summer Jonah hex and, factoring is even in the increased ticket prices for the 3-d drive angry. In fact, features that drive angry worst wide release for Nicolas Cage as the weather man to 4.2 million $ opened in 2005. That was still less angry screens as a drive to 700. Even those, NIC cage has Ghost Rider 2 meeting early next year, so this film prison he even could find for now could be very temporary.

Oscar weekend is the King's was pretty much back up speech with him. With the help of 300 additional screens, there was an increase of 16.7% from last weekend. With a victory this weekend his could get may again in the coming weeks.

Here, broke down as the weekend:

Gnomeo and Julia-$ 14. 2 m (- 25.8%) %75.1m total Hall Passport$ 13. 4 m NEWUnknown-$ 12. 4 m (-43.1) $ 42. 8 m TotalJust go with It-$ 11. 1 m (39.9%) $ 79. 3 m TotalI am number four: $11 m (43.3%) $ 37. 7 m TotalJustin Bieber: Never say never$ 9. 2 m (30.9%) $ 62. 7 m TotalThe King's speech$ 7. 6 m (corresponding %) $ 114. 5 m TotalBig Momma's: like father, like special$ 7. 5 m (- 53.7%) $ 28. 5 m total drive angry 3-d-$ 5. 1 m TotalThe Mitbewohner-$ 2 m (- 47.6%) $ 35. a total of 9 m

That relies on $93.5 million, a significant fall in on the last weekend of the weekend. We expected not so steep a decline, however. Perhaps we should have. The way this weekend could out played, are a clear indication of just how effective rating, when it comes, box office. Theater people away from R-rated films and the Weinstein Company make if you are a minor, confirmed this week you have the King's speech to a PG-13 rating for a rerelease, it seems more and more obvious studios are looking their ratings. In fact, a G-rated motion picture may with Gnomeo and Juliet, at the top here we come to see a rise in family entertainment.

Next weekend, an indicator could be. Rango opens the widest four new films. The others are three adjustment Bureau, brutha, and take me home tonight, the latter of which is an other R-rated comedy. It seems likely, at this point, Rango is the film to beat, but we go in further analysis later in the week.

Come back, that next week for more box office predictions and last tally
