Texas Chainsaw brings Hobbit & Django down

[Jan 4-6]
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.

Hobbit beats out Les & Django

[Dec 28-30]
Hobbit beats out Les & Django

1-In a very tight week ,Hobbit did quite a feat by defeating 2 anticipated movies to claim the box office crown for the 3rd week in a row.Hobbit made a strong $33million on its 3rd week.This puts Hobbits Domestic total to $222million.Hobbit is doing great in overseas making $464million.This makes its worldwide total to $686million.The Hobbit will go strong for the next 2 weeks also.

2-Django came second with $30million.The R rated action flick directed by Quentin Tarantino (Inglourious Basterds) ,has already collected $64million in its 6 day release.The movie has been getting great reviews and critics have praised Quentin for his direction.The movie is currently rated at 89%.

3-Although it opened well ,Les Miserables couldnt keep the crowds attention during the weekend.It made $28million over the weekend and $67million in its 6days.Tom Hooper's (Kings Speech) musical drama ,boasts of excellent performances from Huge Jackman & Anne Hathaway.Even though the movie has got great reviews ,it couldnt match upto the towering expectations.Its currently rated at 72%.

4-Parental Guidance opened 4th making $14.8million in the weekend.The family comedy which stars veteran comedian ,Billy Crystal ,was a top choice for the family (Django was R Rated while Les Miserables was mostly depressing).But the movie has got poor reviews ,calling the movie predictable and a one time watch.But it turns out to be a good choice for families with younger kids.The movie has a rotten rating of 17%.

5-Jack Reacher only suffered a small fall (10%drop) ,as it made $14million on its 2nd week.The movie has made a worldwide total of $67million ,but is still below the standards for a Tom Cruise action movie.

Meanwhile Lincoln is still doing great domestically and has made $132million so far ,which is Steven Spielberg's highest grossing domestic movie since 2008's Indiana Jones 4.

Life of Pi has made a worldwide total of $303million ,and has become Ang Lee's highest grossing movie.

And finally ,after almost 7 weeks ,Skyfall became the first James Bond movie to enter the Billion Dollar club! The movie made $289million domestically & $710million overseas to become the 14th member & 3rd 2012 movie to make a Billion Dollars ($1000,000,000).Skyfall is yet to open in China ,and is expected to make it into the Top 10 Highest Grossing Movies of All Time.

This week we have 3 new releases ,Texas Chainsaw 3D,The Impossible & Promised Land.I dont think these 3 can break into the Top Spot ,as Django or Les will do it.My pick of the Week will be ---

The Impossible-This is a true story about the tragic incident that took place on Dec 26th 2004 -The Indian Ocean Tsunami.The movie has been critically praised for its acting and direction,and is currently rated at 79%.Even though its a bit gloomy ,this will be my Pick Of the Week

The Promised Land stars Matt Damon and is about 2 salespeople who are sent to a rural town to close a deal.This is a drama movie directed by Gus Van Sant (Good Will Hunting, Milk).The movie has been getting below average reviews ,saying its a good start but then ends up predictable and cliched.Its currently rated at 49%.

Texas Chainsaw 3D is about a masked serial killer who kills a bunch of teenagers.No reviews are there currently but it looks like usual slash and kill type movie.Its expected to be rotten and if you want to watch a silly horror movie ,this might be the one for you.
