Box Score: Thor hammers away the competition.
Paramount and Marvel successfully launched the new superhero movie Thor [THOR] to an estimated $66.0 million opening weekend. The comic character based on the Norse god of thunder appealed primarily to older males as 72% of the audience was over the age of 25 and 63% males. 3D accounted for 60% of the revenue.
Last week's champ, Fast Five [FFUR5] crashed 62% from its debut to $32.5 million. The cumulative total reads $139.9 million.
Sony's Jumping the Broom [JUMPB] finished third with $13.7 million to beat out its romantic comedy rival, Warner Bros.'s Something Borrowed [STBRW] at $13.2 million. Both weddding themed films skewed heavily females, which should bode well for their long-term legs.
