Amazing weekends for BLACK SWAN and KING'S SPEECH, and nice gross for BLUE VALENTINE. This movie crossing 1 Million in less than 2 weeks is impressive. They should go wide on Valentine's Day weekend

That's a much better IM for Witch than I expected. Great for Black Swan. |

Sligthly underwhelming for True Grit, but of course its current huge total speaks for itself. |

I cannot believe SWAN had such a small drop. It's not like it expanded a lot. I can't wait to see how it does next weekend when it's a 4-Day weekend. |

A few days before, a person coming out of Black Swan saw a man wearing expensive designer clothes, with a metrosexual hairstyle, and a glazed mesmerized look on his face coming out of Little Fockers. It was Bradley Witherberry, esquire.

True Grit continues to make more than I expected. Little Fockers is making...less, but will still wind up with a solid $150M or so. Not too bad for Season of the Witch considering the long delays and, you know, Nic Cage. I don't see legs much better than what Daybreakers had last year, though. Country Strong did OK in its expansion, although I doubt Screen Gems will add theaters. Phenomenal for Black Swan. What a crazy run. And it adds 400+ theaters over MLK weekend, according to Guru. Watch out. The Fighter and The King's Speech are both doing great. |

I really think that Crazy Heart helped Bridges' profile a lot, even though the film wasn't very big. |

Magnus wrote: Top 12 in 2011: 100m Top 12 in 2010: 148m  It's going to be a rough winter/spring for 2011. Yep. It doesn't help that Dilemma/Green Hornet are this month's biggest options. Compared to last year, February should be pretty ugly, and there's no Alice-type blockbuster to look out for in March. |

Ian McKellen had DVC/X3 back in 2006, but he wasn't top billing for either. The most random actor I can remember was Chris Rock in 05 with Madagascar and The Longest Yard which were released the same weekend. And on a smaller scale Greg Kinnear with Little Miss Sunshine and Invincible, both didn't gross 150, but I remember commenting it. It doesn't happen that often as most actors never want to compete most of all with themselves. |

Bradley don't worry your argument was correct but the movie itself is acting like an exception. No one and I mean NO ONE predicted that this can gross 100m when it started its run. Its just that you did not jump in the other category soon enough after seeing the legs and WOM
