THE PRINCESS AND THE RUGBY BALL

Timed perfectly for a holiday release, Buena Vista's The Princess and The Frog hit theatres with a bang this weekend at top spot, earning $27.9 million from 4,800 screens. The film features the voices of Terrence Howard, Oprah Winfrey and Anika Noni Rose, whom many of you might remember from Dreamgirls.

Two Warner Bros. sports-dramas occupy the second and third slot respectively, with excellent The Blind Side which topped the Box Office last week slipping to number two this weekend. Clint Eastwood-directed Invictus opened in third and has been getting excellent reviews. Check out my review of it here.

There isn't much else new to report this weekend with very few movies opening. After many weeks in the Top Ten now, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, A Christmas Carol and 2012 still hang on strong in fourth, fifth and seventh respectively.

  1. Ugh. New Moon is such a bore fest! *Yawn*
    I've been waiting to catch The Princess and The Frog though, Disney rarely disappoints.
