Box Office Results: Leaderboards Updated as ‘Elysium’ Takes #1 with $29.8 Million

The final box office numbers are in and Elysium slid from the estimated $30.5 million to $29.8m, but still remains the #1 film for the weekend over second place We’re the Millers, which finished with $26. 4 million proving audiences love them some R-rated Jennifer Aniston.

Disney’s Planes held on to the #3 slot with #22.2 million, while Fox’s Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters lost $200,000 from its estimated total for a weekend number of $14.4 million.

These were the four films in this weekend’s RopeofSilicon Box Office Challenge, but outside of updating the results I really couldn’t care less about these numbers.

More interesting is the $2.3 million Woody Allen‘s Blue Jasmine brought in from only 119 theaters ($19,709 per) along with the $13.4 million Fruitvale Station has brought in from a maximum of 828 theaters so far. Believe me, while Fruitvale looks to be sliding on my Oscar charts now, I imagine a late November, early December DVD/Blu-ray release and a whole new Oscar push is on the horizon… Same goes for Lee Daniels’ The Butler, which arrives this weekend, will have its impact and will surface for a second win in about three months of heavy campaigning.

That said, I’ve listed the current top ten for both leaderboards directly below, but you can see the full list of rankings right here and for the complete box office top ten and points awarded for this weekend specifically click here.
