To go along with the study I'm doing, I've also decided to publish the weekend box office figures each Sunday. These figures are kindly provided by BoxOfficeMojo.com
Almost 3 months after release, Avatar is still bringing in a decent amount of money, although the runaway winner was Alice, with one of the biggest opening weekends ever. This beats even Avatar (who only pulled in an estimated $73Million, the weekend before Christmas). It will have to really hustle to catch Avatar though, as Disney's decision to shorten the cinema play time means it won't have the staying power to reap the long-dollar.
| Rank | Film | Weekend Gross (Millions) | Theaters | Total Gross to Date (Millions) | Weeks on release |
| 1 | Alice in Wonderland | $116.3 | 3,728 | $116.3 | 1 |
| 2 | Brooklyn's Finest | $13.5 | 1,936 | $13.5 | 1 |
| 3 | Shutter Island | $13.3 | 3,178 | $95.8 | 3 |
| 4 | Cop Out | $9.1 | 3,150 | $32.4 | 2 |
| 5 | Avatar | $7.7 | 2,163 | $720.2 | 12 |
