Impact Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Okay now-I had this chart on BOM. It is the monthly records through all the years. First up-monthly records for each month then by each year! Now here is the current by months: January: Cloverfield (May take a few years) February: Passion of the Christ (One of the hardest, if not the hardest one to break) March: Hunger Games (Will take a while, we all thought Alice be here for a while but yeah!) April: Fast Five (CA2 could break it) May: Avengers (Avengers 2) June: Toy Story 3 (Could go down soon) July: DH2 (Could go down in a few years) August: Bourne 3 (Might be a while...) September: Sweet Home Alabama (If early reports are correct-this might be finally gone!) October: PA3 (A part 3 should break it ) November: New Moon (BD2 could break it) December: I am Legend (Looks to finally go down this year) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
