Summit Entertainment somehow found the top spot once again with The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part I taking in only $16.9 million. Believe it or not, that’s actually the best three-peat performance of any Twilight installment to date despite the fact that the overall domestic numbers ($247.3 mil) is slightly down from what New Moon pulled in over the same amount of days ($255.4 mil) back in 2009. Still, you won’t find any suits over Summit complaining. Not when this first half of the last Twilight tale has a global cume of $588.3 million after 17 days of release. The budget is set at only $110 million.
Walt Disney’s revitalized Muppets property. The return of the Jim Henson characters hit their $45 million price tag in 2nd place and padded their profit margins in the same position in its sophomoric frame, pulling in another $11.2 million over the weekend. Despite a 61% drop off at the ticket counter, the latest numbers has increased their domestic gross to $56.1 million. The first two weekends has pretty much guaranteed it to become the highest-grossing film of its franchise by the end of its run, ahead of the 1979 release The Muppet Movie ($65.2 mil). Mania
