'Catching Fire' Sets Thanksgiving Box Office Records

Americans went to the movies on Thanksgiving. Well, they went to TWO movies Thursday, Catching Fire and Frozen, propelling The Hunger Games: Catching Fire to $14.9 million at the domestic box office. That beats previous record holder Toy Story 2 to set a new record for Thanksgiving day box office.

That's after a massive pre-Thanksgiving Wednesday take of $20.7 million. Before that, the biggest pre-Thanksgiving day Wednesday was for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part I, which earned $14.4 million just before Thanksgiving.

Lionsgate’s blockbuster sequel has now grossed $222 million in North America since opening last week. It has earned an estimated $423 million globally and opened in 16 more foreign markets this week.

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire is on pace to earn a massive $100 million over the holiday weekend. If tracking holds, that would be a new record for the Thanksgiving holiday period, besting the previous record set by Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in 2001.

Mockingjay Set Photos - Justice Building Ruin

On Location Vacations has just posted a batch of photos from The Hunger Games: Mockingjay set being constructed at a mill site, located off of Experiment Street in Griffin, GA.

The latest photos show a “wall” of containers being built for a green screens, “smoke damage” has been added to the buildings, which are now painted gray, and a chunk of foam facade with the words “Of Justice” carved into it. The ruins of the Justice Building in District 12? Or District 13 where they find the red and pink roses and shoot the propos?

 In addition to what they’ve added, they’ve torn down one of the original buildings and moved a lot of rubble around so there is now a big smoke stack exposed. The set is changing a lot day-to-day so it seems like they are gearing up to begin filming there soon and, given on all of the work they’ve done, OLV anticipates they spend at least a few days there.
