-Thor is back on top, while Catching Fire fell all the way to 4th.

 

-The World's End and You're Next both finished higher than Mortal Instruments!

 

-Blue Jasmine goes wide this week, so it's out. The Grandmaster goes wide next week, so it's eligible for one more week (I might vote for it next week.) Short Term 12 is probably never going wide, so I listed it as closed this week.

 

(tribefan, please let me know if I'm doing these non-wide releases correctly.)

I wait until the theater count actually decreases from the previous week to close it if it hasn't gone wide yet. You never know, Short Term might end up a hit.
