Thanks for the correction.

I couldn’t find any weekend sales charts for “Curve” at Yahoo, BoxOfficeMoJo, or MSN.com.

I was looking for “Perks of Being a Wallflower,” too, which is Emma Watson’s first feature release since “Harry Potter.”

First week for that, too, and same result - zero chart info.

Do you remember the link you used for “Curve?”

Thanks.

Deadline.com is the first stop for movie gross reports. Boxofficemojo.com is the last stop. No other stops necessary.

In just four locations in New York and Los Angeles, The Perks of Being a Wallflower debuted to a very respectable $84,900. That translates to a per-theater average of $21,225, and the weekend should ultimately be strong enough to propel this movie in to its upcoming expansion.

You can get the earliest and most reliable box office returns at Deadline: Hollywood. They start posting early Friday afternoon PST as soon as the first matinee and evening ticket sales are reported.

Whoops, sorry, didn’t realize JediJones had already answered you.

Boxofficemojo is good, too — but they don’t have the same access Deadline: Hollywood does. Sometimes they won’t be able to get ahold of the film’s budget, or they accept the studio’s official number, which is always lowballed — and unless you know the real budget, of course, it’s impossible to gauge whether it’s making money or not.

Somehow Deadline: Hollywood is able to consistently scare someone at the studios into coughing up the kittens re true budget numbers. They’ve got sources everywhere.
