(Reuters) – The dwarfs and elves of "The Hobbit" overpowered Tom Cruise to take the box office title for a second time, grabbing $37.6 million in U.S. and Canadian ticket sales as a crowd of new films fought for pre-holiday audiences.
Cruise’s crime drama "Jack Reacher," a film about a fatal sniper attack, landed in second place with $15.6 million. In third place, adult comedy "This is 40" pulled in $12 million, according to studio estimates compiled by Reuters on Sunday.
Domestic ticket sales for "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" fell by about 57 percent during the film’s second weekend. Movie receipts typically drop 40 percent to 60 percent each week.
In international markets, "Hobbit" sales reached $284 million and brought the movie’s global take to $434 million, distributor Warner Bros. said.
