This weekend the kids from FAME ruled the box office with the remake of the 1980 Alan Parker movie, made safe for the High School Musical generation. Bruce Willis isn't what he used to be in the action genre, opening in third place with SURROGATES, and THE SOLOIST confirms Universal's fears about the proposects of Joe Wright's oft-delayed Oscar bait. THE GODFATHER had a decent screen average of £1,436 given the length and good weather this weekend. Here's the full list:
1- FAME (£2,408,211)
2- CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS (£1,378,937)
3- SURROGATES (£960,116)
4- DISTRICT 9 (£558,954)
5- THE SOLOIST (£371,097)
6- 500 DAYS OF SUMMER (£335,622)
7- THE FINAL DESTINATION (£323,000)
8- DORIAN GRAY (£233,603)
9- GAMER (£209,255)
10- CREATION (£193,540)

It's good to see District 9 still hanging in there - the most welcome surprise hit of the year, for me. Who on EARTH is going to see Fame?! You don't have to "pay in sweat" anymore - you just have to go on the Telly... Right?!
ReplyDeleteI doubt that Cloudy... would be in Second Place if it weren't showing in 3-D... Jon, I concede - the argument is yours!
