Last Week’s Results

That girl is on fire. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire surpassed its predecessor’s opening weekend tally, but came less than $1 million shy of besting The Dark Knight Rises‘ top 2D opening weekend numbers. The rest of the top ten was easily forgotten, including the ill-advised remake of Starbuck starring Vince Vaughn.
