Grey Brings in Green. Kingsman Makes Bank. Jupiter Descends.

fifty shadesThe movie was savaged by critics and as of this writing has a 26% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but that didn’t stop folks from flocking to see Fifty Shades of Grey this past weekend. The film earned an estimated $81.67 million at the box office, which is almost more than the next three films combined.

The film’s success is most likely attributed to smart timing, having it open up on Valentine’s Day weekend, which surely upped the “date night” audience it saw. Men accounted for 32% of the audience at the movie, while they don’t come close to even 1% of the folks who like either the movie or the book on Facebook. Expect its earnings to drop this coming weekend.

The first “comic book” adaptation of the year, Kingsman: The Secret Service opened up this past weekend, earning an estimated $35.6 million. As of this writing the film was well received with a 71% approval on Rotten Tomatoes and B+ Cinemascore.

Jupiter Ascending continued to tank coming in fifth and earning $9.43 million.

Big Hero 6 continued to earn at the box office bringing in $694,000 and bringing its domestic total to $219.3 million.

sponge_out_of_water_3-jpgIt’s been over ten years since the last SpongeBob movie was in theaters, but people flocked to the new one. The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water debuted with an estimated $56 million this past weekend. That knocked the previous three weekend champ American Sniper from the top spot, which added an estimated $24.2 million to its total bringing it to $282.3 million.

The much-advertised Jupiter Ascending didn’t ascend too high, and earned a disappointing $19 million, not shocking based on the bad word of mouth leading into it.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies earned $762,000 bringing its total to $252.9 million. Big Hero 6 continued to earn bringing in an additional $355,00 bringing its total to $218.5 million.

Next weekend sees the first “comic adaptation” of the year hit theaters with The Kingsman.

From the creators of The Matrix trilogy comes Jupiter Ascending which hits theaters February 6th,

From Warner Brothers…

Jupiter Jones was born under a night sky, with signs predicting that she was destined for great things. Now grown, Jupiter dreams of the stars but wakes up to the cold reality of a job cleaning toilets and an endless run of bad breaks. Only when Caine, a genetically engineered ex-military hunter, arrives on Earth to track her down does Jupiter begin to glimpse the fate that has been waiting for her all along – her genetic signature marks her as next in line for an extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the cosmos.

Funko is releasing a line of Pop! Movies figures to coincide with the release of the film. They hit shelves in January.
