Here's the weekend totals for box office receipts ending 5/22. Some of these films have been out a week or more so take that into account when looking at the totals to this point. That being said Star Wars totals are mindblowing, the J-Lo flick being number 2 boggles the mind, and I am surprised Kicking and Screaming beat out Crash which got a lot more positive reviews.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Star Wars: Episode III------------->$ 158.5 Million
2. Monster-In-Law------------------->$ 44.2 Million
3. Kicking and Screaming------------->$ 34 Million
4. Crash----------------------------->$ 27.6 Million
5. Unleashed------------------------->$ 17.6 Million
6. Kingdom of Heaven----------------->$ 41 Million
7. House of Wax---------------------->$ 26.8 Million
8. The Interpreter--------------------->$ 65.3 Million
9. The Hitchhiker's to the Galaxy------->$ 46.9 Million
10. Mindhunters----------------------->$ 3.5 Million

They need to make another Star Wars movie!

For what its worth, that $158 million total as of Sunday already places Sith 111th all-time in box office gross.

It will be in the top four bear minimum if not number one before this is all over.

That doesn't seem to be out of reach, especially since I don't think this one will be losing steam any time soon. Here's the whole list of top 150 movies, U.S. gross:

Good list pp2 thank you.

Yes since this movie is only in week 2 and it's climbed the hurdle this fast I don't see it slowing down anytime soon either.

This film deserves to be number one more than Titanic in my view.

pp2

I'm not a big fan of Titanic either. I didn't bother seeing it for the first 6 months it was out since I knew how it ended. ;)

Actually that's kind of a point there, the length of time it was in the theaters. Not to say Titanic was bad, but to have over $600 million in US receipts? Only cause it sat in the theaters so long and was a cliched date movie. I think its worthy of being in the top 150, but not number 1. That movie's theater run outlasted 2 of my dating relationships lol...and I got stuck going to see it with both of them.

pp2

With Monday's box office in, the Sith take now stands at $172,802,507. Heh, tip money.

That now places Sith firmly in 93rd place all-time, after only 5 days of release.

I'm going to predict that Sith will be around the $210 million mark at the end of Thursday, and closing in on $300 million by the end of next weekend.

Blitzkrieg

Great list PP2...Here's what I learned.


1. Who the fuck went and seen Hitch?

2. Titanic sucked in my opinion. I knew it was #1, but I didn't realize it was over $600,000,000. I watched the movie and fell asleep.

3. Star Wars, Harry Potter, Matrix, LOTR, are like the biggest series EVER.

4. I haven't seen quite a few of these movies.

5. And finally, who the fuck went and seen Hitch?

^^^ Probably all the people that are buying Will Smith's new album.

I just heard his new song on the radio tonight.

I'm not a fan.
