Lionsgate’s Hunger Games dominated the domestic box office for the second consecutive weekend, adding another $58.6 million to its gross, which now stands at $248.5 million after just ten days. According to final figures, it nabbed an additional $34.8 million overseas, bringing its worldwide tally to $362.4 million. Warner Bros.’ Wrath of the Titans debuted in second place with $33.5 million domestically, slightly less than the lower end of forecasts; however, it grabbed $78 million overseas to open with a solid $111.5 million. The previous Titans flick, 2010’s Clash of the Titans, also displayed greater box-office strength abroad than it did in North America. (See separate item.) Relativity Media’s Mirror Mirror opened in third place with a mediocre $18.1 million. Sony’s 21 Jump Street was still jumping at the box office, dropping only 26.7 percent in its third week to $14.8 million, while Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax rounded out the top five with $7.8 million.
