'Skyfall,' 'Guardians' duel for box-office win
LOS ANGELES (AP) – James Bond is in a box-office photo finish with Santa Claus and the Easter bunny over what looks to be the last slow weekend of the holidays.
According to studio estimates Sunday, Sony’s Bond tale “Skyfall” took in $11 million to move back to No. 1 in its fifth weekend.
That put it narrowly ahead of Paramount’s “Rise of the Guardians,” the animated adventure of Santa, the Easter bunny and other mythological heroes that pulled in $10.5 million.
