box office gold

Sony’s Hotel Transylvania, Looper Dominate the Box Office

Sony may not be flying quite as high as its Hollywood rivals on Wall Street, but its studio executives finally have a reason to gloat. Two of its titles led the weekend box office: Hotel Transylvania ($43 million), and Joseph Gordon-Levitt/Bruce Willis sci-fi thriller Looper ($21.5 million), which actually did even better in its opening weekend in China. The big surprise of the weekend, according to Deadline, was Universal’s campus chorus comedy Pitch Perfect ($5.2 million), which was written by 30 Rock and New Girl veteran Kay Cannon. Meanwhile, The Perks of Being a Wallflower ($1.4 million) could make it into the top ten if it just puts itself out there a little more.
