So it looks like the standings (of the films that have a chance) is as follows.
Numbers are from RT.
Twilight - $276.8M (released 5 weeks)
Skyfall - $271.9M (released 6 weeks)
(A note of curiosity, Brave..one of our summer winners, falls into this slot with $237.2M, so it was outperformed by 2 winter movies.)
Wreck It Ralph - $168.7M (released 7 weeks)
Lincoln - $107.7M (released 5 weeks)
The Hobbit - $84.6M (released 1 week)
Anybody else that has not been released doesn't have a chance. It will be interesting to see if Django or one of the others has enough time to make a play at Lincoln. IF I had to choose one, Django would be it, I don't think the others will have enough broad appeal to make it happen.
