Daily Box Office for Friday, January 1, 2010 - Box Office Mojo

There aren't any new films this weekend. Avatar continues to kick butt. In fact, it actually took in more than last Friday, but that's misleading because one of those Fridays was Christmas Day and the other was New Year's Day. One thing is clear - the film has already passed $300 million in 15 days. Only two films in history got there faster. Of course, it may sudenly stall out, but at this moment it seems headed to #3 of all time behind Titanic and The Dark Knight. It does not seem very likely that it will surpass Dark Knight's $533 million to take the #2 spot, but that's not entirely impossible.
