This week's big game day didn't mean anything to movie-goers. For the first time ever, two movies opened above $20 million during Super Bowl weekend.
"The Woman in Black," Daniel Radcliffe's horror flick, started strong this weekend, but it may not have had enough steam to overtake the teenage hero-ridden "Chronicle."
Drew Barrymore's whale of a movie "Big Miracle" didn't make a big splash while Liam Neeson's "The Grey" held its own during week three.
Meanwhile, Disney's "Beauty in the Beast" finally got kicked out of the top ten along with Mark Wahlberg's "Contraband."
Check out this weekend's winners and losers at the box office.
10. Oscar film, "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close" round out this week's top ten with nearly $4 million at the box office. The film dropped 44 percent at theaters.
9. "Man on a Ledge" raked in a modest $4.5 million to stay in the top ten despite a 33 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
8. Oscar buzz helped "The Descendants" stay in the same spot for two weeks in a row despite a slight dip at the box office with $4.6 million.
