Ho-Ho-Hum Weekend for Jim Carrey; Ho-Ho-Worse for Cameron Diaz
Disney
Holiday movie season and high Oscar season have kicked off. But only one is kicking butt.
While Jim Carrey's A Christmas Carol led a bah-humbug weekend with an underwhelming $31 million, per estimates, the Oprah Winfrey- and Tyler Perry-backed award-show contender Precious grossed a stunning $1.8 million at only 18 theaters.
Elsewhere, Michael Jackson's This Is It did its thing (solid $14 million here, bigger $29 million overseas), George Clooney's The Men Who Stare at Goats ($13.3 million) did better than expected for a movie with goats and George Clooney in it, and Cameron Diaz's The Box ($7.9 million) just didn't really open.
Stay tuned for the complete Top 10 standings.
