It may be only the first week of November, but Disney's A Christmas Carol got the holiday season started by spiriting $31 million at the box office, according to early estimates by Hollywood.com Box Office. The $175 million animated movie, which utilized performance-capture technology to allow Jim Carrey to play multiple roles from Charles Dickens' beloved story, represented the best opening in director Robert Zemeckis' career. And even though Carol performed a bit below expectations, the family film should hold up well in the coming weeks, especially since it'll be playing on nearly 200 pricey IMAX screens until Avatar opens on Dec. »
