'Breaking Dawn' still No.1 at box office during year's 2nd slowest weekend

'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1' has topped the box office for the third week running.

The latest 'Twilight' movie still cast the longest shadow with 16.9 million dollars for a third-straight No. 1 finish during one of the year's slowest weekends at the box office.

According to box-office tracker Hollywood.com, domestic revenues totalled just 82 million dollars, which puts it barely ahead of Hollywood's worst haul of the year, when revenues were 81.5 million dollars over the second weekend in September.

Summit Entertainment's blockbuster 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1' raised its domestic haul to 247.3 million dollars.

Coming in second again was Disney's 'The Muppets' with 11.2 million dollars, lifting the family film's domestic total to 56.1 million dollars.

With no new wide releases opening after the busy Thanksgiving weekend, ticket sales nose-dived, with other holdover films managing so-so revenues. (ANI)
