‘Tangled’ Casts a Another Spell at the Box Office

by Shannon Hood, Dec 6 2010 // 7:00 AM

Seems that everyone got their fill of turkey and movies last week, as the overall box office was down 54% from last weekend.  Don’t worry, that’s normal.  Despite the box office being fairly slow, Tangled managed to best Harry Potter and finished the weekend in first place with $21.5M.  That brings its total to just over $96M.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 took a comfortable second place finish with $16.7M.  It dropped off about 65% in its third weekend.   The film is still playing on over 4,000 screens.

Burlesque and Unstoppable tied for third place, earning $6.1 each. Love and Other Drugs nabbed the fifth spot, making $5.7M.

The Warrior’s Way opened to little fanfare, and no screenings for critics. The film failed to make any sort of impact at the box office, placing in 9th place for the weekend, barely clearing $3M.

The Flickcast – Episode 79: The Not-So-Deathly Hallows

by Joe Gillis, Dec 1 2010 // 3:15 PM

After some time off for the Thanksgiving holiday to consume copious amounts of food and drink, Chris and Matt are back with an all-new episode of The Flickcast. On this week’s show the boys discuss all sorts of new topics and touch on a few recurring ones as well.

Some of those topics include the new Harry Potter film, the tragic passing of both Leslie Nielsen and Irvin Kershner, James Franco and Anne Hathaway hosting the next Oscars, The Hobbit not in 3D, the future on the Internet and services like Netflix and a whole lot more. They also made some great picks this week including Matt’s pick of the animated series Young Justice and Chris’ pick of the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Blu-ray.

Want more Chris and Matt? Be sure to check out this week’s episode of This Week in Walking Dead, which stars Matt, guest stars Chris, and series star Andy Rothenberg even stops by.

As always, if you have comments, questions, critiques, offers of sponsorship or whatever, feel free to hit us up in the comments, on Twitter, at Facebook and MySpace or via email.

Box Office: ‘Harry Potter’ Has A Magical Weekend

by Shannon Hood, Nov 22 2010 // 7:00 AM

The Harry Potter franchise enjoyed its biggest opening weekend ever, as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 bowed at the box office with $125.1M.  That included midnight totals ($24M) from Thursday.  The film made $61M on Friday (factoring in the midnight totals).

That is a great total, but it did fall short of Twilight: New Moon’s opening day total of $72.7 last November.

The film was well received by audiences, and received an “A” according to a Cinemascore poll. The franchise’s previous best opening weekend total was $102.7M back in 2005, with Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Deathly Hallows can now boast the sixth best opening weekend of all time, and the fifth best opening day ever. It also had an outstanding per/screen average of about $30,000.

Coming in at a very distant second was Megamind, now in its third week of release.  The film made $16M, and has now made just shy of $110M over its entire run. Unstoppable dropped about 42%, but managed another $13.1M.  Its two week total is $41.9M.  It will have  a steep climb to reach its $100M budget total.

Review: ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’ Part 1

by Jane Almirall, Nov 19 2010 // 7:00 AM

There is an inherent twinge (and by ‘twinge’ I mean big-ass boatload) of sadness that I feel when I reach the end of a beloved book, television series or film. This is one of the reasons that I am perfectly fine with the decision to divide Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows into two parts – all the better to prolong (and put-off) the end to a long, rich story.

While I heard some grumbling about the two-part split appearing to be a greedy cash-grab (and the studio does stand to earn a sizable fortune by doing so), I genuinely think that drawing out the story into two separate films serves to better adapt the original source material – which has such an epic scope.

So far, I have been very impressed with the way in which director David Yates (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince) has handled the Harry Potter film series and Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows Part 1 is no exception.  As the students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry have matured, so have the films – which have become increasingly darker in tone as they progress.
