Not really a surprise considering how wildly popular Borat was, however it's reign at the top will be short due to Harry Potter coming out this week. Speaking of which...
Out This Week:
- Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
- (500) Days of Summer (limited)
- Homecoming (limited)
- A Woman in Berlin (limited)
Smart move on the part of all studios not called Warner Bros. refraining from releasing anything this week. Personally, despite the fact I know it's going to be terrible and that an endorsement of it pretty much means I can be ridiculed for having terrible taste, I am interested in seeing Homecoming more than anything else this week, although A Woman in Berlin is probably the honest-to-goodness best release of the week. But all that aside, Harry Potter 6 will probably make $150 million over the weekend.
