Box Office Weekly
data January 2003
All
figures are in Australian dollars. Welcome
to the Sammi Cinema box office information page. I won't bore you with
details of what films I liked or expected to do well, or indulge in inane
chatter about statistics, I'll just post the most up-to-date box office data I
can get my hands on. Note I include the weekend results as well as more
detailed full weekly details. These are NOT the same list.., examine
the weekend and weekly data for the same week, the top 20 is similar, but not
the same.!
