New Year's Box Office: "Mission: Impossible" Reigns Again

Claiming the pole position for the second straight week, "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol" finds itself perched in the top spot at the box office to begin the New Year's weekend of December 30, 2011 - January 1, 2012.

The Tom Cruise and Paula Patton fronted action film pulled in $10.7 million on Friday and $8.7 million on Saturday while expected to bring in a solid total of $28.2 million during its third weekend of release.

With little change being seen from the Christmas weekend placings, the runner-up slot is occupied once more by the Guy Ritchie directed sequel "Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows," as the Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr starring motion picture made $7.4 million on Friday and $6.2 million on Saturday while trending towards a weekend take of $20.8 million.

Rounding out the top five at the box office in estimated weekend totals are the Steven Spielberg directed movie "War Horse" ($13.1 million), along with the family friendly film "Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked" ($18 million) and the Scarlett Johansson/Matt Damon co-starring dramedy "We Bought a Zoo" ($13 million).
