Despite the massive drops last weekend, holiday legs are about to kick in. The new Narnia movie will outgross the last one, due to 3D and being closer to the holidays. I'm still shocked this was actually made. Black Swan, in just about 60 theatres this weekend, will enter the top 10. However, this is the type of movie that mainstream audiences hate with a passion. Once it expands to over a thousand theatres Christmas weekend, it will probably have its best days behind it. Lastly, the Depp-Jolie starrer hits and won't even be screened for critics. Ouch. I know that is more common nowadays, but what's the last major star vehicle that arrived with no reviews? Sony was having a decent year and will have the Best Picture winner in the form of Social Network, but between Tourist and next week's likely bomb How Do You Know, they won't be having a merry Christmas.
