It's Harry Potter vs. Rapunzel

Look for a battle of the family runescape gold movies this weekend as audiences snack on box office leftovers during what is traditionally one of the lesser performing periods of the year.
For the average film, the typical post-Thanksgiving weekend drop is from 50 to 60 percent. So Warner Bros.' "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1" in its third weekend and Disney's "Tangled" in its second will find themselves fighting for the top slot with grosses in the mid to high $20 million range. This will also push total domestic receipts for "Potter" past the $250 million mark and "Tangled" should cross $100 million.
There will be a veritable logjam for third, fourth and fifth place this weekend. Cher and Christina Aguilera will certainly be in contention with the second weekend of Sony's "Burlesque," which has performed well runescape money midweek and should maintain a solid footing with a gross in the $7 million to $10 million range.
Of course, Will Ferrell and Brad Pitt have remained an intimidating force with Paramount/Dreamworks' "Megamind." In its fifth weekend of release, the 3-D animated film will remain a formidable factor in the top five with a gross of between $6 million and $8 million and a total domestic take of around $140 million by Sunday night.
Also bringing his "A game" is Denzel Washington in Fox's "Unstoppable," which has continued to impress and will be a top five contender in the mid $10 millions as it enters its fourth weekend of release. Offering summer-style action during the holiday period is a strategy that has paid off for the runaway cheap wow gold train tale and it's shown little sign of slowing since its release.
The only wide release debuting this weekend will be Relativity Media's action-fantasy "The Warrior's Way," featuring international superstar Dong-gun Jang. Jang has been called the George Clooney or Brad Pitt of South Korea and he stars alongside Kate Bosworth and Geoffrey Rush. Opening in about 1,600 theaters, expect a gross also in the mid $10 millions for the weekend, with an eventual solid run in the international marketplace.
And look out for the wild-card factor with the R-rated romantic comedy "Love and Other Drugs," starring Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal, which debuted last weekend in sixth place but is showing midweek strength and therefore could sneak its way into the top five.
