A King’s Ransom

The numbers speak for themselves folks.

U.S. Weekend box office earnings.

  1. “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King,” $73.6 million.
  2. “Mona Lisa Smile,” $12 million.
  3. “Something’s Gotta Give,” $11.5 million.
  4. “The Last Samurai,” $7.3 million.
  5. “Stuck on You,” $5.4 million.
  6. “Elf,” $5 million.
  7. “Bad Santa,” $4.3 million.
  8. “The Haunted Mansion,” $4.2 million.
  9. “Love Don’t Cost a Thing,” $4 million.
  10. “Honey,” $2.6 million.

Experts are predicting that RotK could be the second film ever to gross over a billion dollars (with Titanic being the first. I wouldn’t mind seeing that ousted.)

Lord of the Rings earned every penny of it too. I wonder what Tolkien would say if he could see the movies… Probably something like “AHHHH!!! where did you find Oliphants????”
