Avatar pushed to 4th place!

Following a weekend when the underdog romantic comedy, Dear John, shocked the world and stopped Avatar’s unbroken run atop the weekend box office charts, this past weekend three new movies all opened stronger than Avatar, pushing the seven-week champ to fourth place, in front of Dear John, which bested it last week.

Sitting atop the charts was the favorably-positioned Valentine’s Day, a rom-com with great timing that garnered an impressive $56.4 million in its opening bow. The overly gore-ridden remake of The Wolfman came in second place with $31.7 million, while the Harry Potter-wannabe film, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, came in third place with $31.4 million, a virtual photo-finish.

In fourth place, Avatar held steady with $23.5 million domestically, and climbed to $2.35 billion in worldwide box office. That’s almost enough to purchase some rare Ferrari parts for your old Ferrari!

Dear John rounded out the Top 5 films with a still-respectable $16 million in its second week and facing tremendous competition from a formidable trio of films. No other films drew more than $6 million.
