REVEALED: Elvis top gun tie for box office crown with 30 5m each d8094fdc 9e4b 4309 bdfc dd68c2109da3 - The Real Truth

Final figures Monday, once Sunday's grosses are tabulated, will sort out which film ultimately won the weekend. With a high degree of accuracy, studios can forecast Sunday sales based on Friday and Saturday business, though numbers often shift by a few hundred thousand dollars.
