Ender’s Game s and Last Vegas are the newcomers this weekend, taking on the Jackass hit, Bad Grandpa, as well as the Gravity train that does not seem to want to stop. Ender’s Game had a pretty good opening night on Halloween which would then lead to a $28 million gross making it the reigning champion of this first weekend in November. Bad Grandpa was close behind, with a $20.5 million gross, bringing the current total earnings to $62.1 million.
Speaking grandpas, Last Vegas came in third place over the weekend, pulling in $16.5 million which is not too bad. Free Birds, which was the animated newcomer, pulled in $16.2 million, which is making believe that these animated films need to slow their roll a little bit, because it seems like there is a new one every month, and they have not been that successful. Here is the top ten box office round-up:
- Ender’s Game – $28 million
- Bad Grandpa – $20 million
- Last Vegas – $16.5 million
- Free Birds – $16.2 million
- Gravity – $13.1 million
- Captain Phillips – $8.5 million
