EOB Weekend Box Office Podcast: 12/29/2014 - "The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies" Wins Another Battle

The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies

Another one in the can.

Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies” journeyed to the top of the box office again.

Angelina Jolie’s “Unbroken” did surprisingly well.

Family films “Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb” and “Annie” both did better than their opening weekend.

Towards the end, there’s some fireworks between Binh and I. If we weren’t separated by the internet, he would have probably punched me in the face. “PK”, a hit film from India starring Aamir Khan, ignited the debate.

Happy new year!
