Tops at the Box Office


1. The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader- $24.5M
The move from Disney to Fox didn't add anymore passengers on this journey, as the third adaptation of C.S. Lewis's novels failed to surpass the debuts of either of the first two movies. That's even with the added benefit of nearly 2,000 3D screens. Expect for this to be the last trip to Narnia anybody will be going on for awhile.
2. The Tourist- $17M
Something of a disappointing open for a film combining the typical box office might of Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp. By comparison, the similar looking film The American(starring George Clooney) debuted at only $13.1M.


3. Tangled- $14.6M/$116M
Dropping a minuscule 33% from last week, Disney's latest has officically surpassed the total of last year's The Princess and the Frog.
4. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt. 1- $8.5M/$258M
Now the 2nd highest grossing Potter film to date, and the 6th highest grossing film of 2010.
5. Unstoppable- $3.75M/$74.3M
6. Black Swan- $3.33M/$5.61M
It's not even schedule to go wide release for another 10 days, and yet Darren Aronofsky's thriller has already earned nearly $6M at a maximum of 90 locations. Crazy.
7. Burlesque- $3.2M/$32.6M
8. Love and Other Drugs- $3M/$27.6M
9. Due Date- $2.54M/$94.9M
10. Megamind- $2.51M/$140M
