BOX OFFICE
(20th Century Fox)
As we approach final box office tallies for the weekend, it looks like early estimates will hold. Avatar is set to take a sixth consecutive weekend, fending off Legion and others, and becoming the highest-grossing film in North American history after director James Cameron‘s own Titanic.
Projections give Avatar a $36 million weekend and a cumulative domestic box office north of $552 million.
The Harrison Ford film Extraordinary Measures bombed in its debut, finishing in seventh place.
Gossip Cop will keep tracking Avatar as it steams toward Titanic‘s #1 spot on both the all-time domestic and all-time worldwide box office charts.
