_____________________________________________________________________________________
It must have been written in the stars that my top box office prediction was correct, as Gravity blasted off with $55.5 million for the number one spot!! The Warner Brothers hit also has its sights set on awards season. I have to say, it’s definitely deserving.
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 slipped just one spot to number two chomping down another $21.5 million in ticket sales.
Runner Runner crossed the finish line at number three with just $7.6 million. Looks like Mr. Timberlake still hasn’t proven himself as a bankable star. Perhaps Ben was able to give him some advice on that while they were on set?
The heavy hearted drama Prisoners is still holding strong at number four adding $4.7 million to its $48 million domestic total.
The racecar drama Rush is petering out at number five with just $4.4 million bringing its domestic total to $18 million. With a $38 million budget, Universal will have a hard time recouping their money.
Don Jon, the Joseph Gordon-Douche vehicle fell to the number six spot with just $4 million. Hopefully, it will be out of the top ten next week. Let’s see Mr. Pretentious ignore the fact that his movie flopped.
The Fox comedy Baggage Claim fell to the number seven spot, but with a modest budget, their domestic total of $15 isn’t too hefty of a loss.
Insidious Chapter 2 had a few more scares left at number eight and with a budget of just $5 million; their domestic total of $75 million is pretty darn impressive.
Lionsgate’s musical romantic comedy Pulling Strings hit a sour note opening at number nine with just $2.5 million.
The indie Enough Said, featuring one of James Gandolfini’s last performances, rounded out the top ten after screening to wider release this week.
Check out the full box office chart below.
1 Gravity $55,550,000 $55,550,000
2 Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 $21,500,000 $60,557,000
3 Runner Runner $7,600,000 $7,600,000
4 Prisoners $5,700,000 $47,880,000
5 Rush $4,408,000 $18,095,000
6 Don Jon $4,160,000 $16,077,000
7 Baggage Claim $4,125,000 $15,185,000
8 Insidious Chapter 2 $3,876,000 $74,750,000
9 Pulling Strings $2,500,000 $2,500,000
10 Enough Said $2,150,000 $5,387,000
Next week I’m predicting Captain Phillips (look for my movie review soon) at the number one spot, but don’t expect it to break any box office records. Tune in to see if I’m right!
Until then, happy movie going.

Suzie! I want to see gravity it looks amazing. Nice job. Glad levitt bombed
Hi Ryan – you should see it – seen it twice – amazing. JGL can suck it 🙂
Oh Susan, I am in despair. I wanted to comment for sure, I wanted to talk about my deep sadness and how my heart was ripped into a thousand pieces and the guttural death that filled my soul when the huntress was defeated but I just couldn’t. I wept so hard, my mother refused to allow me to read anything for a day because I could not be consoled. I tried to write about my love for you and then I couldn’t stop crying. I went to the medic and he said, “oh Wanda what’s wrong?” and I said, “I’m dying!” and my mother screamed. The doctor said, “Wanda, why are you dying.” I said, “I’m dying of a broken heart because Suddenly Susan was defeated on the battleground!” My mother screamed again for other reasons.
It’s horrible Suddenly Susan so horrible that you were shunned ney beaten down the path of life. Oh Susan, how could everyone look upon your frayed decayed spirit and know that you are gone and smashed onto the pavement of life.
I say, I will rise, I will rise and take on this “pretentious douche” that only likes movies about porn and unsavory whores. I will not rest until that skinny runt is pulverized into the pavement of life and I will urinate on his decaying carcass. Oh Susan, I don’t know what to do… I don’t know what to say, I am at a loss. Tears fill my empty woub. How can I continue to sing with the sparrows and prance with the deer, oh HOW CAN I GO INTO THE FOREST AND LICK THE DEW AND NECTAR FROM THE BOSOM OF LIFE? Oh… I don’t… Suddenly
Susan… You must rise like the warrior.
I have word out to the Frenchman. He hit the lanky one. The antelope will not run. Ride Billy Beer, he has a lame leg but he gallops and trots like a stallion.
He doesn’t, I’m a liar but you must go on. Billy Beer can not run but when the enemy comes hit him in his lame leg and use his death as a distraction.
The Frenchman knows your heart and wants to bring you jellybeans. Take one a day and it will give you a soul back. Not yours but the soul of all the people you have touched. Oh…
Susan you must dance. I can’t continue. I need to rest. This is too much… Too too too too too much. I want to write a song, I’m calling it, “The song I wrote for Suddenly Susan when she was hurt on the road and couldn’t find her heart but I think she’ll be okay since she has the Frenchman.”
Squeal Lanky!
Wanda,
What planet are you from? If from Earth, what are you on? Please share with us as it seems you are some good drugs.
Hi Wanda – no need to get upset over that “runt” as you called him – great word to describe him by the way – he’s not worth it 🙂
Wanda is crazy. I admire the passion but honey stop the crack haven’t you heard it’s wack!
