Jandrew Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Haha, when i saw "broken record" i thought you meant a thread for things that people keep going on and on about like Frozen's run, CF $400M, MOS sucking, Marvel vs DC, and TASM2 looking like a video game. Whoops. Edited January 12, 2014 by Jandrew 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) How about FROZEN's 3rd, 4th, 5th etc weekend records? Edited January 12, 2014 by kayumanggi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAtGender Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 How about FROZEN's 3rd, 4th, 5th etc weekend records? Other films had larger such weekends. It's mostly notable for Frozen due to the calendar. However, I think it's now the largest movie that didn't open at #1. Unsure how to easily check that, though.

kayumanggi Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 Will update the list later. Thanks DamienRoc! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think it's now the largest movie that didn't open at #1. Unsure how to easily check that, though. I can't find it either, but Frozen is the 2nd highest opening weekend to not be #1, and looking through that list nothing is closer than 50 million from Frozen for domestic total (The Blind Side at 255 mil) http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/weekends/opennot1.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that it's opening weekend isn't the biggest non-#1 opening, which is entirely different. And, yes, that means wide-release opening. The fact that Frozen had a limited engagement for five days doesn't change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
