This Weekend @ the BoxOffice: 2008.Dec.22

They blame it on the winter weather but another weak weekend at the boxoffice, I just think Jim and Will may be moving out of the current movie demographics, at lease Will can claim bad advertisement for his movie, Seven Pounds, I mean, does any one know what it was to be about!

The Day the Earth Stood Still, fell to number 4.

Does this break Smith's streak of #1s?

Does this break Smith's streak of #1s?

I think so.

While Carrey's box office has varied depending on the genre, Will Smith has been consistent across genres in recent years, and his last eight pictures grossed well over $100 million each. Seven Pounds delivered Smith's least attended opening since The Legend of Bagger of Vance in 2000. The drama weighed in with an estimated $16 million on around 3,700 screens at 2,758 theaters, trailing Smith's last December drama The Pursuit of Happyness, which opened to $26.5 million.

Pursuit of Happyness:
Domestic: $163,566,459 (53.3%) + Foreign: $143,502,600 (46.7%) = Worldwide: $307,069,059
