“The Final Destination” Tops Box Office

Posted by Sara Hetland on 8/31/09 • Categorized as Movies

Horror film “The Final Destination” ranked first at the box office this weekend, taking in $28.3 million, according to EW.com. The film marks continued interest in the 3-D format as 70 percent of the revenue came from 3-D theaters. “The Final Destination” is the fourth film in the “Final Destination” franchise.

Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” slipped to No. 2 this week, with $20 million. That’s a 47 percent decrease from its opening weekend.

Rob Zombie’s “Halloween II” opened at No. 3, with $17.4 million.  Science fiction film “District 9″ came in fourth, dropping from last week’s second place.

Twitter users shared their opinions on each film:

    gamer_ghost Halloween 2 SUCKED. OMG Rob Zombie should never make another movie. Final Destination in 3D was Ok.
  2. Cypress Melissa
    CipressaSATX Inglourious Basterds was a good movie – intense, dark, bloody, with a twisted sense of humour. A textbook Quentin Tarantino flick.

    jadetiger68 Took kids to see Final Destination 3D. Was awesome. Movie itself was about average but the 3d effects were cool as hell.

    ivyreb I enjoyed Inglourious Basterds, but not as much as friends & family. It was okay, but not as good as Kill Bill, in my opinion. Sorry.

    LateShowUK @Wossy Watched the new Final Destination film over the weekend – not bad, but not as good as the others in the series
  8. Tommy Willis
    The_Willster just went to see Final Destination 3D – THE WORST FILM OF ALL TIME – even that doesn’t do its awfulness justice!

    clawsonlfs @levarburton I too thought District 9 was phenomenal. It was, IMHO, what sci-fi is supposed to be.
