Jurassic Park, upending our small world again in yet another relentless display of  cinematic evolution. 

Fury Road cracks the $20m in five weeks, but is now on $2780/screen on 247 screens, having lost 71 last weekend. However, Australia at this stage still had a long way to run, trundling through the regions and outer suburbs. In North America it has taken US$139m, for a world total of US$330m. Foreign figures still suspect. It is down to number five in the US, under Pitch Perfect and Entourage, now on 2234 cinemas and averaging US$1820/theatre. Ending soon.
