"BREAKING DAWN PT. 1" IS SECOND-HIGHEST OPENING FOR "TWILIGHT"

Still from Breaking Dawn Pt. 1

As you can see, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Pt. 1 was an epic failure at the Box Office this weekend.  Hardly anyone saw it.  LOL Just kidding. This latest installment tallied $139.5 million, the Twilight Franchise's second-highest opening weekend ever right behind 2009's A New Moon, which opened with $142.8 million. Early numbers projected that it would bring-in upwards of $140 million but nonetheless, this is highly impressive and $72 million of that alone came from its opening day. Internationally, it fared amazingly well with $283.5 million.

Happy Feet 2 opened this weekend with $22 million for Warner Bros. which by all means is good, but still far off the mark of the $41.5 million its predecessor made back in 2006.  It was an ambitious task opening the same weekend as Breaking Dawn Pt. 1, as much of that Female audience's (including Moms) attentions were spent there.

Immortals continues to do well in third this weekend with $12.3 million in its second week of release, just ahead of horrendously-reviewed Adam Sandler-in-drag fare Jack and Jill with $12 million.

Puss in Boots finds itself in fifth spot this weekend with $10.7 million, to-date earning $122.3 million.  J. Edgar in its second week slips to seventh spot with $5.9 million, uncharacteristically weak for a Film starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

At the bottom of the Top Ten is The Descendants starring George Clooney, which appears to be garnering him lots of Oscars Best Actor and Best Picture buzz.  It sets a record for highest grossing Film from fewest number of Theatres, earning $1.2 million from just 29 screens.

"IMMORTALS" IS GOD AT THE BOX OFFICE

Still from Immortals

Huge weekend at the Box Office! After much fanfare, Immortals finds itself on-top with $32 million from 3,112 theatres. Despite not faring quite as well with Critics (37% on the Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer), audiences clearly are responding to  Director Tarsem Singh's latest effort. This likely will bode well for his next effort, Mirror Mirror starring Lily Collins, Armie Hammer and Julia Roberts.  Immortals was made for $75 million and likely will recoup this back quickly.  It's official, Henry Cavill is a Star.

Although it's been panned universally (at one point last week weighing-in at 0% at the Tomatometer), Jack and Jill still performs respectfully for Universal Pictures in its debut with $27.5 million.  The Adam Sandler Comedy has him playing both Brother and Sister roles, placing it just ahead of last week's number one Film Puss in Boots with $27 million for Paramount Pictures.

Debuting in fifth spot with weak reviews is Clint Eastwood's disappointing J. Edgar Hoover Biopic starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Armie Hammer.  The Drama brings in $12 million from 1,901 theatres, which actually puts it on-par with Eastwood's 2010 effort, Hereafter.

Surprisingly still hanging-in is Disney's Real Steel in tenth spot with $2 million this weekend in its sixth week of release. Domestically, it has garnered $81.5 million and internationally it has made $207 million in its run thus far.

"PUSS IN BOOTS" ON-TOP WITH A BOX OFFICE "HEIST"

Still from Tower Heist

In a rare occurrence, this weekend's Box Office Top Four actually have the positive reviews to match their success. For the second week in-a-row, Puss in Boots finds itself atop the Competition.  The Spin-off of the Shek Franchise earned $33.1 million and to-date, the Animated Feature has brought in $75.5 million.

Debuting in second with a respectable $25.1 million from 3,367 screens is Universal Pictures' Comedy Tower Heist starring Eddie Murphy and Ben Stiller. The Film currently is sitting at a 69% rating on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer.

Debuting in third is Warner Bros.' A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas with $13.1 million. Surprisingly, the Comedy also has garnered fairly strong reviews with 72% on the Tomatometer.

Paranormal Activity 3 drops to fourth spot in its third week of release for Paramount Pictures with $8.5 million, just-ahead of Justin Timerblake-starring In Time for 20th Century Fox.

The Rum Diary starring Johnny Depp slips to eighth spot already in its second week with $2.9 million this weekend. Meanwhile, The Ides of March sits in ninth spot in its fifth week with $2.0 million, pushing its total run past the $36.6 million mark.

"PUSS IN BOOTS" DELIVERS THE TREATS ON HALLOWEEN WEEKEND

Still from Puss in Boots 3-D

Paramount Pictures makes it two-for-two with two separate Movies. Despite it being Halloween weekend, Families dictated the results at the Box Office this weekend with Shrek Spin-off Puss In Boots 3-D at the top of the tally with $34 million.  The Animated Feature has fared well among Critics also, with an 86% rating at Rotten Tomatoes. Finishing behind in second is last week's champion Paranormal Activity 3 with $18.5 million, earning $81.3 million already in two weeks.

20th Century Fox debuts in third with Justin Timberlake-starring In Time with $12 million, debuting below expectations. Reviews haven't been strong for the Action/Drama, rating 36% on the Tomotometer at Rotten Tomatoes.

Another Paramount Film, Footloose (2011) slips to fourth spot with $5.5 million - a total run so far of $38.5 million in North America - just-ahead of Johnny Depp's latest Film The Rum Diary, based on the life of Hunter S. Thompson, with $5 million.

The Ides of March still is sitting in the Top Ten in eighth spot after four weeks of release, taking-in $2.7 million. To-date, it has brought in $33.5 million, while another TIFF 2011 Gala Premiere Moneyball is in ninth spot this weekend with $2.4 million in its sixth week.
