'Twilight' No. 1 again, but 'Muppets' not so far behind.

I think this is the first week since I started posting the weekend box office about a year ago that the top 10 movies are the same top 10 movies from the previous week, though in a different order. I'd like to see a handful of these. What are your movie recommendations?

From The Associated Press:
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Where available, latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.
1. “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1,” $16.9 million ($40.2 million international). (Review by The News-Herald's Mark Meszoros)
2. “The Muppets,” $11.2 million ($1.8 million international). (Review by Meszoros; Q&A with Kermit the Frog by The AP's Derrik J. Lang)
3. “Hugo,” $7.6 million. (Review by Meszoros)
4. “Arthur Christmas,” $7.4 million ($11.4 million international). (Review by The AP's David Germain)
5. “Happy Feet Two,” $6 million ($16.3 million international). (Review by Germain)
6. “Jack and Jill,” $5.5 million ($3.2 million international). (Review by The AP's Jake Coyle)
7. “The Descendants,” $5.2 million. (Review by The AP's Christy Lemire)
8. “Immortals,” $4.4 million ($4 million international). ("You can see the next Man of Steel in theaters now swinging a sword in 'Immortals'" by Lang)
9. “Tower Heist,” $4.1 million ($4 million international). (Review by Lemire)
10. “Puss in Boots,” $3.1 million ($23 million international). (Review by Lemire)
