Movie Kombat: Gone Girl vs. Annabelle

Gone Girl wins!
Thanks to strong showings from Gone Girland Annabelle, we just had the most successful week of October in box office history! Gone Girl barely beat out Annabelle for the top spot, with the two films making $37.5 million and $37.1 million, respectively. You guys voted in favor of Gone Girl 3-to-2! Good job! My own predictions were waaay off! Though as I said earlier this week, I really didn't know what to expect from these two. Gone Girl had the biggest opening ever for a David Fincher film, passing Panic Room starring Jodie Foster, which opened with $30 million back in 2002. Annabelle didn't quite open as strong as its predecessor, The Conjuring, which made $41.9 million, but it still had an incredible debut, which is even more impressive when you consider its small $6 million budget.

Next week we have 3 big films coming out with the release of Dracula Untold, The Judge, and Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. I think it's safe to say that October's hot streak is going to continue, as we have a lot of solid movie releases on the way. Maybe it can even help pull the box office out of its slump! We'll find out soon enough!
