DS did a bit better than expected this past weekend, bringing in $1.41 million (over the $1.36 million estimate), according to boxoffice.com.
And what's nice is DS brought in a bit more each day than was estimated - it wasn't just one day where it made more.
And the good news was that Friday was indeed the day when DS overtook
John Carter. However it's still ranked 12th for the year so far because, as expected,
Snow White and the Huntsman climbed over it.
And speaking of rank, DS did indeed come in at #11 for the weekend. Who knows why so few places other than Box Office Mojo had the foresight to take
Moonrise Kingdom into consideration? But hey, coming in 11th, especially when it brought in more money than was expected, is certainly not a bad thing.
