AVATAR STILL RULES THE BOX OFFICE XMAS WEEKEND

Avatar is showing no signs of stopping. With competition rolling in from Sherlock Holmes, Alvin and the Chipmunks (gag) and It's Complicated, Avatar still managed to stay atop the box office this weekend with a whopping 75 million. DAMN!!! The weekend also saw the biggest domestic box office weekend IN HISTORY!! Combined ticket sales equaled an estimated $285 million. After Avatar's 75 million was Sherlock Holmes with $65.4 million, Alvin et al with 50.2 and It's Complicated with 22.1 million. That's a lot of freakin' tickets sold right there. I haven't seen Sherlock (want to) or Alvin (would rather take out my own intestines with a spork), but It's Complicated is a lovely film (review coming soon) that you should go see. James Cameron is getting a lot of flack for calling some autograph seeker an a-hole recently, but it doesn't seem to be hurting his film. Maybe it's helping! Douche it up, Cameron. [source]
