How many times am I going to post “Avatar wins the box office”? It’s a phenomenon now. James Cameron makes great movies that make a lot of money. No critic, no nay-hearsay, no finger pointer can take that away from him. 

With that said, I am happy to see Edge of Darkness and When in Rome holding the second and third spots.  I am also happy to see It’s Complicated still in the top ten.

It will be interesting to see what happens to the box office tally after the Oscar nominations on Tuesday morning. Check back here to get the full details.
