Box-Office: AMERICAN SNIPER Sets Super Bowl Weekend Record

"American Sniper" is still the No. 1 movie at the box-office for a third consecutive weekend and making a ton of money. The war flick has now grossed $248 million domestically. And this weekend the movie broke yet another record, scoring the highest grossing Super Bowl weekend of all time with $31.8 million. Previous record holder was "Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour" which grossed $31.2 million in 2008. Clint Eastwood himself surely never saw this coming, and neither did any of the pundits. The film is now on its way to becoming the second highest grossing R-rated movie of all times, if it manages to overtake the $281 million grossed by "The Matrix Reloaded" (and it surely will).

The weekend proved to be a very slow one for many of the other films in the top 10. "Paddington" managed to climb to second place this week and raised its domestic gross to $50.5 million. Meanwhile previous No. 2 movie "The Boy Next Door" dropped almost 60% from its opening weekend and fell to No. 6

New releases "Project Almanac", "Black or White" and "The Loft" all disappointed and underperformed. The IMAX release of previously aired episodes of "Game of Thrones" grossed $1.5 million from 205 theaters and almost made it into the top 10. 

New Wide Releases: "Project Almanac", "Black Or White", "The Loft".

Biggest Drop : "The Boy Next Door" (-59%)

Smallest Drop : "The Imitation Game" (-25%)
