Last Week’s Results

The record-setting debut of the first film in The Hobbit trilogy was below many estimated expectations, but the positive reviews from audiences may help keep it afloat through the holiday season with few true blockbusters waiting in the wings. The rest of the top 10 just kept shedding numbers allowing the still-in-limited Silver Linings Playbook to return to the top 10.
