User blog:Ceauntay/Box Office Report: 'iCarly' To Settle Second Place Behind 'The Dark Knight Rises'

=Interest will express that "The Dark Knight Rises" may stay at the top box office in a couple of weeks, meaning that "iCarly: The Sequel" will just settle to second place, which is good.

As the film is less than two weeks from being released in theaters, iCarly: The Sequel opens a week after the release of The Dark Knight Rises. But reports say that the film will dominate atop iCarly: The Sequel.

The Dark Knight Rises, the third installment of the Christopher Nolan-directed Batman franchise, says that it may dominate the weekend box office in a couple of weeks like its predecessor The Dark Knight topped the box office for four weeks in 2008 after its massive $158.4 million in July 2008.

Box office observers belive that seeing iCarly: The Sequel coming in second place is still a good spot. But turned out that they ended up being released on the wrong spot for iCarly: The Sequel. It's impossible to beat blockbuster hit. It could mean that it may be opening to a lower opening to $30 to $35 million, but still counted as a strong opening.

It's predecessor iCarly: The Movie debut big two years ago with $50.3 million, which ended Inception's run from being at the top of the box office after two weeks. In it's opening weekend, it grossed $62.7 million. In it's third weekend, it came in second with $27.4 million, bringing its total to $193.3 million.

iCarly: The Movie also grossed $405.7 million worldwide, including $113.3 million in North America, and $292.4 million overseas. As for iCarly: The Sequel it may not be able to overtake that spot.

Last month, Will & Grace 2 debut lower to $32.2 million, a far cry from its predecessor Will & Grace, which made $70.5 million two years ago. As iCarly: The Sequel opens in theaters on July 27, The Dark Knight Rises opens in theaters a week earlier to July 20.
