Weekend Box Office May 6th - May 8th

Alright here we are! The summer movie season is here as well as the start of our Fantasy Movie League! This article will now not only have the top 10 but also each team and the total gross for each film. Anyone curious about the rules please see our Fantasy Movie League section, link is on the right hand side of the site.


  1. Thor: $66 Million *OPENING WEEKEND*
  2. Fast Five: $32.5 Million, with $139.8 Million Overall
  3. Jumping the Broom: $13.7 Million *OPENING WEEKEND*
  4. Something Borrowed: $13.2 Million *OPENING WEEKEND*
  5. Rio: $8.2 Million, with $114.9 Million Overall

  9. Soul Surfer: $2.1 Million, with $36.7 Million Overall
  10. Hoodwinked Too! Hood vs Evil: $1.9 Million, with $6.7 Million Overall
I think the top spot was to be expected but still a nice weekend for Thor and even better is it should have another strong weekend upcoming with the only 2 releases being Priest and Brides Maids. Priest is an action film based on a graphic novel about an order of priests that were once in a war with the vampire race and believed they had wiped them all out. Brides Maids is a comedy from the producers of Superbad and The 40 Year Old Virgin that has been getting solid early reviews.
