Burlesque opened in 4th this weekend with under $12 mil. It landed behind 3 kids movies. Does this mean Cher is washed up? Or Christina will never be a triple threat?

Hereafter

themoviemonkey — Wed, 27 Oct 2010 20:37:46 +0000

Paranormal activity opened up to $40 million including its IMAX release. Why is a movie that's filmed in low quality using surveillance cameras in IMAX? Because it brings in $40 million for a low budget film. Jackass came in second for its second week and RED came in third for its third week. And then there was Hereafter. On its 4th weekend (3 weekends in select cities) it made an astonishingly disappointing $12 million. Why? The Movie Monkey knows why.

RED

themoviemonkey — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 09:00:57 +0000

This weekend the newest Jackass opened up to its biggest numbers of the series. But it was only in 3D so 25% - 33% of the $50 million was in glasses revenue. The question is, if it had not been in only 3D would it have made more? The Movie Monkey isnt here to worry about such insignificant questions, he is here to talk about RED. Red came in second with $21 million.
