Weekend Box Office 12/20/09

James Cameron’s Avatar dominated the box office this weekend, as expected. I know this film has been hyped to the heavens, but I have zero desire to see it. I am not a sci-fi buff at all, and this just looks like something I wouldn’t enjoy. Maybe when it comes out on DVD. Definitely not going to go to the theater, though.

Here are the weekend box office estimates for 12/20/09:

1. Avatar, $73 million
2. The Princess and the Frog, $12.2 million
3. The Blind Side, $10 million
4. Did You Hear About the Morgans?, $7 million
5. The Twilight Saga: New Moon, $4.4 million
6. Invictus, $4.2 million
7. A Christmas Carol, $3.4 million
8. Up in the Air, $3.1 million
9. Brothers, $2.6 million
10. Old Dogs, $2.3 million
