'Hunger Games' finishes in first again

A seemingly strange weekend at the box office: The top 10 movies range from under $1 million to over $61 million. I'm sure this has happened before, but I don't remember an occasion when there was such a wide range of revenue. 

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 Hunger Games,” $61.1 million. (Review by The News-Herald's Mark Meszoros; "Hunger Games" overflows with ingredients that should mix together to form a giant hit at box office by The AP's David Germain)
