MEDIA BY NUMBERS FULL YEAR 2008 & HISTORICAL BOX-OFFICE
"Marley & Me" Now Two Weeks at Number One!
Top 12 Box office Actuals for Weekend of January 2
It Deja Vu all over again as the top seven films line up exactly as last weekend as Fox's Marley & Me tops the chart for the second consecutive week. In second is Disney's Bedtime Stories followed by the Brad Pitt epic "Benjamin Button" from Paramount. Tom Cruise stands at number four in MGM's "Valkyrie" and Warner's "Yes Man" maintains its spot at number 5. All of the top films maintained very strong holds as none of them realized more than a 34% second weekend drop which is miniscule by industry standards and is a direct reflection of continued viewer satisfaction.
Specialized or limited release films continue their success as "Doubt," "Slumdog Millionaire," "Gran Torino," "Milk," "The Reader" "Frost/Nixon" and "Revolutionary Road" relentlessly draw audiences captivated by these fine films. Paramount Vantage adds another limited release hit to the mix with "Defiance" posting a huge $60,000 plus per theatre average in its two debut locations.
A great way to start the box-office year as the momentum from the end of 2008 carries over into the freshly minted box-office year of 2009.
