Texas Chainsaw brings Hobbit & Django down
Texas Chainsaw brings Hobbit & Django down
1-Texas Chainsaw 3D made $23million to debut in the first place.The low
 budget horror movie was the top choice for the audience ,although it 
has been getting negative reviews.Currently rated at 21% ,Texas Chainsaw
 will soon be going down without leaving much of an impact.
2-Django Unchained kept its 2nd position from last week with $20million
 this week.The movie ,which has a budget of $100million ,has already 
made its production cost within 13 days.The movie is still going strong 
with the excellent reviews its been getting.Django is all set to be 
Quentin's highest grossing movie (Inglourious Basterds is currently his 
biggest domestic movie at $120million).
3-Hobbit continued to 
defy expectations as it still goes strong in its 4th week.It made 
$17.5million this week.With a strong overseas collection of 
$561million,Hobbit has made $824million worldwide since its release.The 
prequel to the Lord Of The Rings Series is set to overtake Fellowship Of
 The Rings ($869million) within 10days.
4-Les Miserables had a 
fall ,as it made $16million in its 2nd week.Les Miserables has made 
$103million domestically and has so far made $67million overseas.For a 
musical ,Les Miserables doing excellent business.The movie has made a 
worldwide gross of $170million from a budget of $61million.
5-Parental Guidance had an average fall as it made $9.3million.The movie
 has been a big hit for Fox Studios ,as it has already made $68million 
,from its $25million budget.
2 other releases failed to make 
big numbers.Promised Land ,which stars Matt Damon made only 
$4.6million.The movie has been getting average reviews and is currently 
rated at 50%.
The tsunami based movie ,The Impossible ,made just 
$2.76million.But the movie has been a big hit overseas ,and has already 
made $67million.The movie is expected to rise up the charts ,once the 
awards season starts since Naomi Watts is expected to get some 
nominations for her acting.
Skyfall is now the #13th highest grossing movie of all time with $1.023billion.
This week we have 2 thrillers and one comedy.My pick of the week is 
Zero Dark Thirty- After her successful war movie The Hurt Locker 
,Kathryn Bigelow is back with yet another war thriller.Based on the true
 story behind Bin Laden's capture ,ZDT has already made a big impact on 
the Awards Season.The movie has a solid 94% rating too.This will be my 
Pick Of The Week!
Gangster Squad-This movie was supposed to be 
released in July 2012 ,but after the Colorado shootings during TDKR's 
premiere ,Gangster Squad was postponed for its violence.The movie has a 
solid cast of Ryan Gosling (Drive),Sean Penn (Mystic River) ,Josh Brolin
 and Emma Stone.The movie is directed by Ruben Fleischer of Zombieland 
fame.
A Haunted House ,is a comedy/horror movie starring the 
Wayan.Its a spoof of recent horror flicks ,and is to be AVOIDED at all 
costs.If Marlon Wayan's past is checked ,its filled with idiotic movies 
and parodies and Haunted House trailers shows no difference.Save your 
money and watch something else.
