'The Hobbit' Box Office: Film Passes $500 Million Mark, Stays On Top And Beats 'Taken 3'

"The Hobbit" Box Office - "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" managed to successfully beat the likes of "Taken 3" at the box office. The film has garnered more than $500 million in the box office and continues to be the film to beat at the number one spot.

Following in the footsteps of its predecessors, "The Hobbit" box office success continues with its third film. Not including the first three films based on the books of J.R.R. Tolkien. "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" reelied in $31.9 million, "The Desolation of Smaug" garnered $29 million.

Such amount is of course chick feed to "The Hobbit" box office film number three. The "Battle of Five Armies" garnered $21.9 million only on its third weekend. Other films that desperately made an attempt to kick out five armies from the top spot include "Into the Woods" and "Unbroken."

"The Hobbit's" box office success in domestic total now tallies up to $220.8 million, while its worldwide tally has managed to reach $678.6 million. For the weekend estimates, Rentrak has managed to list the numbers opposite the films, which may be read below.
