Weaver Hosts SNL & AVATAR B.O. Numbers
TITANIC is about to hit that iceberg once again, only this time it’ll be Na’vi blue.
From the Associated Press:
James Cameron’s “Avatar” had a $41.3 million weekend to shoot past “Star Wars” as the No. 3 movie on the all-time domestic box office charts. Next stop, “The Dark Knight.” No. 1 for the fifth-straight weekend, Cameron’s sci-fi saga raised its domestic total to $491.8 million and should top $500 million after revenues are counted on Martin Luther King Day, according to studio estimates Sunday. Worldwide, 20th Century Fox’s “Avatar” lifted its total to $1.6 billion, second only to Cameron’s last movie, 1997’s “Titanic,” at $1.8 billion.
So there you have it. James Cameron will be the greatest film ruler of all time.
SNL jumped on the AVATAR bandwagon by having Sigourney Weaver as this week’s host. The skit below, ala HULU, uproariously invoked all things Cameron….ALIENS, TITANIC, TERMINATOR. Enjoy!
