Box Office Weekend: Fifty Shades of Grey Seeing Green
Controversy can lead to the demise or the rise of many films, good and bad alike. For the highly anticipated (but critically panned) Fifty Shades of Grey, the controversy was enough to make Presidents’ Day Weekend a profitable one, earning an estimated $81.7 million here and nearly $240 million worldwide, making the $40 million production a runaway success.

Box Office Weekend: Sniper Washed Out By SpongeBob
