‘Hunger Games’ Devours the Competition at Box Office
Fresh from USA Today-The Hunger Games thundered to the third best debut in history this weekend, with $155 million, charging the box office and launching a franchise that could challenge the Twilight series. Hunger’s haul exceeded most analysts’ highest expectations and marked a huge opening for a first-time film.
Of the two films with bigger debuts, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2 ($169.1 million) and The Dark Knight ($158 million), both are sequels!
The final dollar amount is due out this Monday, and we can’t wait to see how The Hunger Games did!
