2009′s Top Grossing Holiday Movies

Written by Darren Hewer

The holiday season is a popular time for big-budget blockbuster movie releases. Here are the top movies from holiday week 2009:

#1)  Avatar ($75 million)
#2)  Sherlock Holmes ($65.4 million)
#3)  Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel ($50.2 million)
#4)  It’s Complicated ($22.1 million)
#5)  Up in the Air ($11.8 million)

Although Christmas day is a popular day for moveigoers, I always felt a little bad for the people who were forced to work at the theaters on Christmas, even though they would usually get time-and-a-half pay … regardless, both Avatar and Sherlock Holmes are definitely on my list of movies to see in early 2010!

Did you see any of these movies this Christmas? Did any of them capture any of the Christmas spirit? What about more traditional Christmas movies, like It’s a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Story, or A Charlie Brown Christmas?
