'Titans' rules weekend box office: $61.4M
On a box-office weekend of far-ranging missions (and ticket prices), the 3D Clash of the Titans scooped up the most money, an estimated $61.4 million, while Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married, Too? ruled as the top-grosser among 2D-only films, with a huge $30.2 million.
The Last Song, Miley Cyrus' first major venture without Hannah Montana, sounded about right: a fourth-place debut, a $16.2 million Friday-Sunday.
Clash of the Titans is the third straight 3D movie to top the weekend box office. In fact, in 14 weekends so far this year, a 3D movie has been on top 10 times. The trend is a matter of appeal?and math. 3D ticket prices are simply higher. As your wallet could have told you.
Titans actually played in slightly more 2D theaters than 3D ones, but it grossed slighlty more at 3D venues than 2D ones, box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations said.
