Paranormal Activity 2 blew away expectations to land in first place with $41.5 million, setting a record for horror movie premieres. The original blew away all expectations, but steadily grew in money week after week. While the second has a very promising start, I don't know if it will be able to maintain the huge box office dollars, despite great reviews (including one from yours truly).
Jackass 3D dropped an expected 60% to come in second, with Red coming in third. Not a bad box office weekend for films.
What did you see this weekend?
