As predicted, Lions Gate's "Hostel" will become the first 2006 release to capture the top spot at the box office. The film got off to a great start yesterday as it pulled in $7.5 million. An opening weekend tally in the area of $20 million is expected.
'Narnia' took a 59% hit off of its Friday-to-Friday numbers, but still captured the #2 slot. The film has so far snagged $236 million, passing the $234.2 million tally of "War of the Worlds" to become the third biggest domestic performer of 2005. This one should be in for a fifth weekend mark of $12-$15 million.
Sony's "Fun with Dick and Jane" took the third slot with a modest decline of 38%. After a so-so start, this one has found its legs and will become the tenth $100 million performer for star Jim Carrey. The film has currently earned about $73 million.
Taking a steep 61% slide off of its pace last weekend was Universal's "King Kong", while Fox's "Cheaper by the Dozen 2" was off by 58%. 'Kong' should have a fourth weekend mark of $10-$11 million, while Cheaper 2 should take in about $6-$8 million.
