BoxOffice: Alices Gives RPatz a Beat Down

What did this weekends box offices total’s prove? Well one Johnny Depp and company can still beat your ass in the box office any time and two Rob Pattinson without the word ‘Twilight’ attached to a film title, well isn’t exactly record breaking.

‘Alice in Wonderland’ raked in another $62 million dollars this weekend, keeping it at the number one spot and giving the film $208 million overall domestic.

‘Remember Me’ RPatz’s first post-Twilight endeavor came in at number four with $8.3 million.  Now considering the film only cost $16 million to make, I’m positive the film will most likely rake in around $18 million during its box-office run.  However, even with the fact that the film deals with 9/11 tragic events, 84% of the movie goers were female.  We’ll have to see how Kristen Stewart’s film ‘The Runaways’ does when it opens in March.

Matt Damon however bombed this weekend.  His $100+ million production costing ‘The Green Zone’ brought in $14.5 million, but was still good enough for number 2.  This is most likely the lowest grossest Damon Movie in the last 5yrs.  Both ‘Cop Out’ and ‘The Crazies’ had better opening weekends.

Rounding out the top 5, ‘Shes Out of My League’ came in at number 3 with $9.6 million and ‘Shutter Island’ finishes at number five with $8.1 million.
