Weekend Box Office Estimates: October 12-14, 2012


Taken 2 (Fox) reigned supreme at the box office for the second weekend in a row. The Liam Neeson action thriller earned an estimated $22.5 million and, after ten days, boasts a cumulative total of almost $87 million. I assume there will be a third installment. The number two spot was claimed by newcomer Argo (Warner Bros.), a film directed by and starring Ben Affleck. The political thriller centering around the rescue of six Americans during the Iran hostage crisis grossed just over $20 million. Another new film, Sinister (Lionsgate/Summit), starring Ethan Hawke, landed in third place. The horror flick scared up over $18 million during the three day frame. Rounding out the top five are the animated Hotel Transylvania (Sony/Columbia), which continues to hold up well after three weeks, and the new comedy Here Comes the Boom (Sony/Columbia), starring Kevin James. Hotel Transylvania added just over $17 million, while Here Comes the Boom debuted with $12 million.

Here are the Top Ten Weekend films, according to early estimates (numbers are in millions):

1. Taken 2 - $22.5

2. Argo - $20.1

3. Sinister - $18.3

4. Hotel Transylvania - $17.3

5. Here Comes the Boom - $12.0

6. Pitch Perfect - $9.3

7. Frankenweenie - $7.0

8. Looper - $6.3
