The chart that gets your week off to a great start is here GoJu Nation. Even if it’s Tuesday lol. And this is interesting GoJu Nation. Although it cheated with a couple of earlier releases around the country, this past week “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2” has broken the opening weekend debut mark with over $169M in receipts. The final chapter of this phenomenon is ending on a major high note. Grossing over $6.5B in receipts makes this the most successful movie franchise ever. Especially for a 8 movie stretch. In this age of social network and media being what it is, I’ll be surprised to see if another movie franchise will captivate the world the way the world of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft And Wizardry has.

 

Monday and off hiatus. Were back GoJu Nation.  And that means da movie charts. So let’s get into it.  Of course Transformers 3 is the number one movie for the 2nd week in the row. What’s great about this is that the movie itself is good.  Transformers 2 wasn’t as sexy as it needed to be as a sequel and the appropriate changes were made accessing the missteps made in Transformers:  Revenge of the Fallen. Dark of the Moon is the truth.

 

Another summer and if you haven’t noticed GoJu Nation, Sylvester Stallone is on a roll.  Under the radar he’s re-introduced “Rocky” & “Rambo” to a new generation (both with box office success).  Additionally he’s done something that we’ve all wondered if it could be done and this is getting every action hero together on 1 screen.  With the #1 box office spot this week, he’s accomplished that financially and critically. It’s not easy in this climate to take a stereotype and re-invent it successfully.  Not an “Oscar” contender but the money is on the screen.  And in the summer of 2010 that seems to be enough.
