“Dear John” Topples “Avatar” as Top Weekend Movie
::Sponsored Links::
The romance “Dear John” took over the No. 1 at the weekend box office from “Avatar,” which had been on top for seven straight weeks.
“Dear John” (Sony/Screen Gems) which stars Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried and is based on a book by Nicholas Sparks, took in $32.4 million at the box office, according to early estimates from Hollywood.com. The movie had been panned by critics; at a recent public screening in the New York area, the crowd booed at the end.
“Avatar” (Fox) brought in $23.6 million for No. 2; “From Paris With Love,” (Lionsgate) an action film with John Travolta, grossed $8.1 million for third place.
Paul Dergarabedian, president of the box-office division of Hollywood.com, said via email that “Avatar” was “knocked off its perch by the power of female audiences at the box-office.” He added that “Believe it or not, New Line’s ‘Lost in Space’ took the top spot away from ‘Titanic’ back in 1998.” “Titantic” had spent fifteen weeks at number one.
