Tropic Thunder

'Tropic Thunder' Rolls Into Top Spot
by Brandon Gray

he Dark Knight's reign atop the current box office charts ended this week, but it was by no means a sign of weakness for the super blockbuster. It was merely a function of age as the picture was in its fifth week and the high profile Tropic Thunder entered the fray. While the latter was solid, the new movies as a whole were modest, leading to another down week compared to last year.

Over the weekend, Tropic Thunder muscled in with $25.8 million on approximately 4,500 screens at 3,319 locations and its first full week came to $44 million. The Hollywood and war action movie spoof, which distributor Paramount Pictures / DreamWorks Studios claimed cost over $90 million to make, had higher initial attendance than the similar Bowfinger from August 1999 and its opening was on par with Starsky and Hutch. DreamWorks' research indicated that 57 percent of the audience was male and 67 percent was over 25 years old.

Descending 37 percent over the weekend to $16.4 million, The Dark Knight became the second-highest grossing picture of all time, soaring past Star Wars' $461 million, and its fifth weekend out-grossed the first weekend of the new Star Wars movie, The Clone Wars. Factoring attendance, though, Dark Knight is far behind the first Star Wars' 1977 release and it presently reside just below Home Alone at No. 36 on the all time adjusted for ticket price inflation chart. IMAX continued to buoy the Batman sequel as the format contributed an estimated $2.5 million to the weekend gross, down 22 percent, and it accounts for nearly eight percent of the overall total.
