Box Office Stats


See that picture? That was my face when I heard what was the number one movie over the weekend. Yes, Obsessed headbutted into the top spot taking in a staggering $28.5 Million and easily making back it's $20 Million budget. It more than doubled the take of this weekends #2 movie, 17 Again which itself barely held off newcomer Fighting. They brought in $11.6 and $11.4 Million respectively. Rounding out the top five are The Soloist with 9.7 Million and Disney's Earth which pulled in $8.5 Million.

I guess the competition wasn't that great for films this week. Nothing new looked to terribly interested so I guess it makes sense that people flocked to what looks to be a shout at the screen groan fest like Obsessed.

Next week summer kicks into high gear with X-Men Origins: Wolverine. After that it's gonna be a great May with Star Trek and Terminator Salvation on deck. Let's just hope we don't have any more movies like Obession to worry about.
