the weekend that you do not expect. April 2012 will be remembered as a particularly rich month for the American box office. In making his leadership this past weekend, surprisingly, the Sony comedy Think Like A Man It cost only $ 13 million, and launched into 'just' 2.015 film, the film has raised $ 33 million, bringing the masses of African Americans in the room that usually runs to see the film Tyler Perry signed.

 Extraordinary the average room, amounting to $ 16.377. Beaten, but still more than satisfied, The Lucky One - I Tried your name. The Warner melodrama, usually taken from the bestseller by Nicholas Sparks and starring Zac Efron, has grossed $ 23 million in 72 hours, clearly beating the odds of the same major, who had speculated about 15 million. After exactly one month past the peak, Hunger Games so leave the first position to slide on the lowest rung of the podium. Bronze medal for the Lionsgate film, whose estate still continues to surprise. -31% on receipts, another 14 million at the farm and made a total of 357 million dollars for the film by Gary Ross, now a step be killed the wall of 572 million worldwide. Terrific.

Fourth position for another newcomer, or Chimpanzee. Excellent results for the signed Disney nature documentary, able to exceed the limit of $ 10 million collected in 72 hours ($ 6.529 average), thus improving the beginnings of African Cats and Oceans, the last two 'titles animals' made in Disney. Decrease by 45% and 30 million dollars in cash for the Farrelly Brothers' Three Stooges, followed by The Cabin In The Woods, fell by an unexpected -47% on receipts and came to $ 27 million. 49 are the millions of dollars collected to date by American Reunion, anything but exciting at home, with a Titanic 3D declined 58% and now up to 53 million.

In closing Top10 Finally, we find 21 Jump Street, more than satisfied with its $ 127 million, and Snow White, came to 55 million. We leave for a moment the American box office, however, to follow the course of Battleship in the rest of the world. There are about 129 million dollars raised from the film by Peter Berg in 12 days of programming. Cost about $ 250 million, the Universal film will have to cash out about 500 to start making cash. Should do it without too much trouble (unless unexpected flop with stars and stripes).

 Busy next weekend, thanks to the arrival of the Universal comedy The Five-Year Engagement, the exit of The Raven, of the Action Safe, and Pirates of the cartoon! Grub Street brigands in 3D. Who will make her the box office, waiting for the storm The Avengers?
