Top 5: Weekend Box Office
Did you see a movie over the weekend? What topped the box office?
Only two new movies opened this weekend. Natalie Portman is in a new movie that's in limited release about First Lady Jackie Kennedy. Aaron Eckhart from Olympus Has Fallen, London Has Fallen and The Dark Knight Rises is in a new horror movie, Incarnate.
Incarnate debuted ninth, earning $2.7 million in its opening weekend. I'm kinda wondering why a horror movie would come out after Halloween, but that's just me. Danny Glover's ensemble Almost Christmas dropped to tenth; Bad Santa 2 was eighth, picking up another $3.3 million for a total of $14.3 million after two weeks in theaters. Mel Gibson's Hacksaw Ridge was seventh; Trolls, with Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake was sixth.

Even though Doctor Strange dropped to fifth, it has become the most successful Marvel super-hero movie. In just five weeks, the movie has made $600 million worldwide. That's more than 2008's Iron Man, which made $585 million. The movie passed this year's X-Men: Apocalypse. It beat all the other Marvel movies domestically, too. Over five weeks, it's made $215.3 million!

Brad Pitt's WWII film made another $7.1 million over the weekend. After two weeks that adds up to $28.9 million. I liked him in Inglorious Basterds. I didn't get a chance to see World War Z, yet. Does all this gossip about his personal life affect you going to see a movie he's in?
