National Treasure, SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, and The Incredibles, as expected, swept the top three of the North American box office chart for November 19-25; Saw II, in its fourth week, was left showing in only 1552 theaters, ranking ninth for the week with a box office of $6.89 million, raising its total box office to $100.77 million, becoming another R-rated horror film in cinema history and Flame Movie to break the $100 million mark in North America, and with a production budget of $5 million, it has already created a cost revenue ratio of 1900% for the producers, distributors, and theatre chains.
Of course, bills for promotional copies, transportation, and screening are not for nothing, and there are various taxes. Without a doubt, Flame has once again made a killing, with its fourth title this year to exceed $100 million at the box office, with a 100% massive release rate.
