Weekend Box Office Estimates: November 23-25, 2012


The final installment in the Twilight franchise, Breaking Dawn - Part 2 (Lionsgate/Summit), continues to dominate at the box office. For the second time in a row, the film captured the top spot at the weekend box office, earning about $43.0 million, which is a steep drop off from last weekend. However, after just 10 days, the film has earned more than $225 million. That's what you call a monster hit. Second and third place belonged to more adult oriented films, Skyfall (Sony/Columbia) and Lincoln (Disney/Dreamworks), which are both holding up well. Skyfall grossed another $36 million and its cumulative take now stands at over $220 million after just 17 days. Lincoln dropped only slightly from its debut weekend and managed to add another $25 million. The film looks poised to easily top the $100 million mark.

Two new films rounded out the top five. The (mostly) family friendly Rise of the Guardians (Paramount/Dreamworks) earned about $24 million, which was good enough for fourth place, while Ang Lee's Life of Pi (Fox) snagged $22 million and a fifth place showing. Finally, in limited release, Silver Linings Playbook (The Weinstein Company), starring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence, earned $4.6 million and a ninth place finish in under 400 theaters.

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

1. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2- $43.1

2. Skyfall - $36.0

3. Lincoln - $25.0
