Wiki News/Box Office: Huge Wednesday for 'Potter' ($14.5M) and 'Tangled' ($11.8M)

There will be no haircuts at Disney this Thanksgiving.

The studio's 3D-animated "Rapunzel" adaptation "Tangled" grossed $11.8 million Wednesday, according to one rival studio's estimates, putting it behind the still-very-huge "Harry Potter 7" ($14.5 million Wednesday) but in position to exceed pre-release tracking estimates by as much as $20 million.

"Tangled" was forecast to gross around $40 million over the five-day holiday period, but could easily clear $60 million by the time the weekend is through.

Warner's "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," meanwhile, could break $80 million over the same period.

Paramount's "Jane Hoop Elementary: The Final Rush" continues to soar in third places Wednesday with a still strong $8 million, for a total of $272 million on it's 13th day of release -- leading to make about $50 million for a Holiday weekend, and may pass the $300 million mark.

On a great Wednesday for makers of family-targeted movies -- DreamWorks Animation 3D holdoer "Megamind" also finished with a solid $2.7 million -- all of the new adult-skewed titles were middling to soft.

Sony Cher/Christina Aguilera musical "Burlesque" finished in third place Wednesday with an estimated $2.8 million, putting the PG-13-rated Steve Antin-written-and-directed film on pace to hit around $18 million for the five-day weekend period. That would match its studio's conservative pre-release forecast.

Fox Jake Gyllenhaal/Anne Hatheway romantic comedy "Love and Other Drugs" grossed an estimated $2.2 million Wednesday, also putting it on track to meet conservative forecasts of around $15.5 million for the five-day.

Does Wall St. Want Off the DreamWorks Animation Roller-Coaster?Slower out of the gate was CBS Films' third movie, The Rock/Billy Bob Thornton action-thriller "Faster," which grossed an estimated $1.6 million.

Picking up momentum, meanwhile, Fox's Denzel Washington runaway-train thriller "Unstoppable" added $1.9 million Wednesday and should gross $14.5 million over the five-day. That would give the solidly reviewed Tony Scott-directed film around $60 million in domestic grosses after three weekends. The $85 million film has grossed over $30 million internationally to date.
