�Revolutions� brought in a whooping $204 million worldwide since opening but at home the film only brought in $50.1 million over this past weekend. That is a big number, but really down from the opening weekend for �Reloaded� which opened with $91.7 million in domestic ticket sales. 

There is a silver lining, leaving the weekend numbers aside, �Revolutions� opened last Wednesday and the 5 day domestic totals look much better at $85.4 million. But that is still below the expected $100 million. 

What stalled the Matrix at the box office over the weekend? Would you believe an elf? The Matrix captured a little over a third of moviegoers this past weekend but Will Ferrell�s new movie �Elf� captured a fifth, grossing $32.1 million. 

The fact that �Elf� received much better reviewers couldn�t have hurt either. But it surely stalled The Matrix�s plans for world domination. 

Disney�s �Brother Bear� made a strong second week showing with $18.6 million and �Scary Movie 3� moved down to 4th place with $11.1 million. The new Hugh Grant comedy �Love Actually� missed the top 5, coming in 6th place with $6.6 million, behind �Radio��s $7.4 million. 

Meanwhile, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake tied Runaway Jury for 8th place with an estimated $4.8 million in ticket sales, slighted beaten out by Mystic River which brought in $4.82 million.
