    300 RISE OF AN EMPIRE

    It looks like after seven years the Spartans still hold sway over the box office. The follow-up to 2007’s 300 easily opened at #1 with $45.1 million. Even better was its international gross of $87.8 million meaning the sequel, which only had a budget of $100 million, is in the black after one weekend.

    Mr. Peabody and Sherman, playing to a way different crowd than 300, opened in second with $32.5 million. Non-Stop had a strong second weekend bringing in $15.3 million. The LEGO Movie held strong in fourth.

    Next week sees the release of two more high profile movies: Aaron Paul’s Need For Speed and the return of Veronica Mars. Guess which one I will be seeing, marshmallows.

    2. Mr. Peabody and Sherman- $32.5/ $32.5

    Non-Stop-Liam-Neeson

    Even Jesus couldn’t take down Liam Neeson this weekend, but seeing as Neeson played Aslan in The Chronicles of Narnia series, we will call it a 1-2 finish for the Lord.

    There is almost one sure thing in Hollywood; if Neeson has a new action movie opening, it will open at #1. Non-Stop finished with $30 million beating Son of God which made way more than expected considering people had already seen the movie.

    What’s that?

    Yep, Son of God is most of the Jesus story that was shown in History Channel’s big miniseries, The Bible, with deleted scenes added in to make a movie. Brilliant move seeing as Son of God brought in $26.5 million.

    My brain hurts a bit.

    The LEGO Movie fell to third with $21 million, crossing $200 million domestically. Frozen continued its wonderful run becoming the newest movie to cross $1 billion worldwide.

    1. Non-Stop- $30.0 million/ $30.0 million

    2. Son of God- $26.5/ $26.5

    3. The LEGO Movie- $21.0/ $209.3

    4. The Monuments Men- $5.0/ $65.6

    5. 3 Days To Kill- $4.9/ $20.7

    6. Robocop- $4.5/ $51.2

    7. Pompeii- $4.3/ $17.7

    8. Frozen- $3.6/ $388.7

    9. About Last Night- $3.4/ $43.7

    10. Ride Along- $3.0/ $127.1
