Actually, we don't yet know who won the battle of Greek-myth fighting and rom-com fun. 20th Century Fox posted a weekend total for Date Night of $27.1 million at the North American box office, while Warner Bros. said that Clash of the Titans had earned $26,875,000. That's a difference of just $225,000, or less than 1%. The final, actual grosses will come out on Monday afternoon...
...MONDAY UPDATE: The final numbers produced a mild upset. Clash of the Titans won the weekend with an actual $26.6 million (close to the Warner Bros. estimate) to Date Night's $25.2 million. Fox honchos had predicted that Tina and Steve would enjoy a $7.1 million Sunday date, which proved to be fully 30% higher than the $5.43 million the movie took in. How to Train Your Dragon's estimated $25.4 million was also a little high; the true total was $24.9 million. So Clash gets to brag in this week's commercials that it's still...
...Clash dropped 56% from its opening weekend - not a disastrous plummet, considering that the movie got mixed-to-hostile reviews and a lowish B-minus CinemaScore rating, and that the geekosphere was vexed that Clash was converted at the last minute from 2-D to fake 3-D. (Call it faux-D.) Costing $125 million to make (compared with Date Night's $55 million), the movie has already earned $110 million in North America and another $45 million abroad. Action movies almost always do better in foreign markets than comedies. Baby Mama, for example, took in $60.5 million at home...
...million, on the weak side for a DreamWorks 3-D animated feature. But it fell only 34% in its second weekend, and for its third time around, it dropped just 12.6%. In 17 days the movie has taken in more than a quarter-billion dollars worldwide. Also, as Clash quickly fades, and with no new 3-D movie opening until Shrek Forever After (also from DreamWorks) on May 21, Dragon will retain those thousands of screens that charge higher ticket prices. And that's something to roar about...
