The good news is that Serenity held tenth place for two days in a row (and had the second best Tuesday-Wednesday change of the top 10). The not so good news is that we're about to lose almost half our theaters ( http://www.boxofficemojo.com/counts/chart/?yr=2005&wk=42&p=.htm ) so today might be the last time many people can see Serenity.

For comparison... Oliver Twist looks like it's gone from theaters. Into the Blue took another big hit in theaters and is finally playing in less locations than Serenity. Greatest Game Ever Played lost about a hundred theaters less than Serenity. And History of Violence appears to have reached its peak and should start shedding theaters next weekend.

For movies that just finished up their second week... Gospel had the best hold over. In Her Shoes lost about the same percentage of theaters as Serenity did last week. Two for the Money pulled an Into the Blue. And Waiting lost more than third locations.

The quick summary is that there are fifteen movies playing in more theaters than Serenity this weekend (Wallace and Grommit isn't on the BOM list yet). So anything better than 15th is a positive .

Yes, its doing well in Ireland too. The benfit of being an Entertainment Officer for my universities Fantasy and Science Fiction Societies are innumerable.
I've been plugging the series and the movie for months at our weekly meetings.
We held a Shindig for the BDM, and I organised an outing comprising .... 30 people. We comprised half of the (full)theatre. That was crazy. Us Irish are not known for our punctuality, so I was paranoid that as organiser-person, I'd have to wait outside for latecomers. Fortunately, the long-term members knew the perils of making me miss a second of the BDM, and whipped everyone into shape. Afterwards we went back to our place and dined on strawberries and other fresh fruit.
[To make it worse, I was dressed as River but the only 'stompy boots' I had were my boyfriends, about 3 sizes too big and far too heavy for me. It wasn't too bad, but after the movie my legs were asleep and I found it hard to lift my legs.]

The Numbers.com is no longer showing Serenity's Box Office ranking. Does this mean it has finished it's North American run?

Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than a license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run
