HOLLYWOOD — Hollywood is poised to finish a record-breaking year with what will quite possibly be the highest-grossing weekend ever for the industry.
According to people who closely follow surveys and box-office returns, ticket sales this weekend in the U.S. and Canada could total more than $260.8 million. “Avatar” is almost certain to be No. 1 again. “Sherlock Holmes” is generating interest among all audience segments based on the brand name and the appeal of star Robert Downey Jr., at left.
