The Christmas to New Year’s weekend movie earnings are in not too surprisingly National Treasure 2 continued to hold on to the top spot. I think that means its safe to say we’ll see a National Treasure 3 in a couple more years. I am disappointed to see Alvin come back up to the second place rank while AVP2 and Juno stayed pretty low. Okay, probably not fair to group AVP2 and Juno together but I did think both of those would do better. I was also sorry to see Denzel Washington’s ‘The Great Debaters’ fail to make the top ten. That looked pretty interesting. Did you get out to see any of these?
