Christmas Puts A Stake In Vampires

Looks like teen vampires could not contend with the contentious glamour of family (dysfunctional family) over Thanksgiving holiday. Reese and Vince topped the punch office with "Four Christmases" (yes, we're all on a first name heart here). The scoop: "Thanksgiving weekend movie crowds gobbled up the Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn holiday comedy 'Four Christmases,' which debuted at No. 1 with $31.7 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. "The Warner Bros. release, featuring Witherspoon and Vaughn as a couple suffering through four separate family holiday gatherings, raised its total to $46.7 million since opening Wednesday to get a head start on the long weekend. "In terms of revenue, it was Hollywood's second-biggest Thanksgiving period ever. The top 12 movies took in $223.7 million from Wednesday to Sunday, trailing only the $232.2 million haul over Thanksgiving in 2000." Here's the top five movies over the weekend: 1. "Four Christmases," $31.7 million. 2. "Bolt," $26.6 million. 3. "Twilight," $26.4 million. 4. "Quantum of Solace," $19.5 million. 5. "Australia," $14.8 million.
