Top 5 Box Office Movies

Top 5 US and Canada Box Office Movies

This week people have voted for the top 5 movies in theatre by buying a ticket and watching it. The companies put the movies in theatres to see if people will like it and then they make a large amount of DVD's to all movie stores. The movies that don't make it into theatres don't get a large space rather than the popular ones that get pratically a whole shelf to themselves. The top 5 for THIS WEEK is:

01) UP

UP is usually recognized as the movie with the balloons attached to the house, floating high up in the air and the scene most recognized is where the little kid, on the house, which is in the air, talks about his GPS. The movies weekend gross is $44,244,000. The cumulative gross is $137,316,435. It's been out for 2 weeks and it's playing in 3,818 theatres! I have never seen this movie but I am very interested in it because it looks like a good movie.

02) The Hangover

The Hangover is an unfamiliar movie to me because I have never heard of it before so I can't say much about it. The weekend gross is $43,275,000 and the cumulative gross is the same. I'm not so sure I will go see this movie because the title does not interest me. When I think of The Hangover I see a bunch of kids that are all hungover at a party, who would want to see that?

03) Land of the Lost

The Land of the Lost is also unfamiliar to me because I have never heard of it before. The weekend gross is $19,524,000 and the cumulative gross is the same. Land of the Lost ... Land of the Found :) I would rather want to be found than lost. It's been out for only a week.

04) Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian

I absolutly loved the first one so I defenitly want to see this one. I love to watch funny movies and this would fit into that category. The weekend gross is $14,650,000. The cumulative gross is $127,341,200. It's been out for 3 weeks and it's playing in 3,807 theatres.

05) Star Trek

Star Trek ... I always thought they were a little far fetched and wierd and crazy and alienish and this is a run on sentence but Star Trek has never interested me so I probably wouldn't go see it. The weekend gross is $8,400,00. The cumulative gross is $222,801,695.
