Box Office/Total Domestic Gross Reports... I Loose....

So my comment below about the box office ratings... wow. I was wrong. Lets break down what is doing what. These numbers are total gross:

At number 1: Transformers 2 with 389,508,496
2: Pixar's Up with 286,409,185
3: Harry Potter 6 with 260,610,864
4: The Hangover with 257,269,418
5: Star Trek with 254,777,330
6: Monsters vs. Aliens with 198,021,110
7: Ice Age 3 with 183,660,946
8: Wolverine with 179,665,805

Honestly, I'm quite a bit surprised. I didnt think Transformers had done so well. Or Monsters vs. aliens. And I had completely forgotten about the Hangover! And I'm also a bit impressed with "Up" ranking number two.

The opening weekend Box Office amounts are also interesting. Shows how fast people learn whether a movie is good or not.

1: Transformers
2: Wolverine
3: Harry Potter
4: Star Trek
5: Fast and Furious
6: Up
7: Monsters Vs. Aliens
8: Watchmen

One to point out. The most anticipated of all "Watchmen" is at number 16 for total gross, bringing in only 107,509,799. But summer isn't over. "G.I. Joe" and "Julie & Julia" come out this weekend and "Harry Potter" is finally getting its IMAX run. So who knows what is going to happen in the end...
