Analysis…

Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part Two did easily win turkey week. Rise Of The Guardians ended up getting destroyed by Skyfall, thanks to its awesome weekend. Many over-performed to help post the most successful Thanksgiving frame ever.

…

Speaking of James Bond, Skyfall did beat Quantum Of Solace’s domestic take of 168 million to become the franchises’s most successful ever. Had it right in the latest essay…

…

The remake of Red Dawn did benefit strongly from the addition of Chris Hemsworth, and posted a solid opening.

…

As predicted, Lincoln did post the best hold of the top five and even beat my call by a good amount. Look for this to gain even more strength in the coming weeks. Life of Pi ended up destroying my predictions, impressive. Overall, solid call on Silver Linings Playbook.

…

Have a great week,

Sensei White Lotus
