Meanwhile, Out of the Furnace, which has Christian Bale and Casey Affleck in it scored at #3 with $5.3 million.
This year will break the record amount of cash earned by movies since the previous season. There is the folklore story Inside Llewyn Davis which bagged $100,500 at the theaters on a nationwide level. Then comes, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug which is an interesting tale based upon J.R.R Tolkien’s writings about Middle Earth.
It’s a neck to neck competition between Frozen and Hunger Games: Catching Fire. They are appearing in cinemas around the world. While the first is a Disney tale with all the animated characters that are fun, lively and cute.
The second features a dystopian state in which couples are sent to forage in forests and stay alive. On the other hand, Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom stars idris Elba. The movie is coming out at a time when the great South African leader and freedom fighter has departed this world for the next.
