Monday Morning Box Office Report: Chihuahuas Still Hot
Wow… Beverly Hills Chihuahua topped the box office for the second weekend in a row despite the large number of new releases in theatres. Perhaps it was simply a case of too much choice, but Quarantine still managed second place with $14.2 million, followed by Body of Lies with $13.1 mil. City of Ember, on the other hand, bombed pretty hard, taking in just $3.2 million. Clearly it didn’t connect with the family audience that they were aiming for. The Express debuted at #6 with $4.73 million.
1. Beverly Hills Chihuahua — $17.5M
2. Quarantine — $14.2M
3. Body of Lies — $13.1M
4. Eagle Eye — $11M
5. Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist – $6.5M
6. The Express — $4.73M
7. Nights in Rodanthe — $4.61M
8. Appaloosa — $3.34M
9. The Duchess — $3.32M
10. City of Ember — $3.2M

Posted by Ian on October 13th, 2008Its probably taking the sheeple’s minds off of the economy going downhill and up coming elections.
Posted by Baychuk on October 13th, 2008Well I just watched Speedracer and that was some good escapism. Something this bad would just force me to think about how shitty the world is. Though who knows maybe it’s complex or just fun? Probably not.
