'Dear John' Knocks 'Avatar' Out Of Top Spot
Who would've seen this coming? After a record SEVEN WEEKS as the #1 film at the box office, 'Avatar' was knocked down to the #2 spot by 'Dear John.' This is all the more surprising because movies geared towards women are thought to be poor box office performers :) So Avatar was done in by a chick flick no less! Despite the monster winter storm on the East Coast, Relativity's sappy military-themed love story Dear John headed to a much bigger than expected $13 million opening Friday from 2,969 North American theaters. Which means the military love story distributed by Sony/Screen Gems will definitely break Avatar's 7-week reign atop the domestic box office Friday despite higher 3D ticket prices. Are you planning to go see 'Dear John'? Are you one of maybe five people who hasn't seen 'Avatar' yet? LOL. Amanda Seyfried and Channing Tatum are having a fantastic weekend, I bet.
