Weekend Report, March 11, 2013
Oz the Great and Powerful was all that and then some with a killer $79.1M opening weekend. The CAA-packaged product looks to be on a great course for major paydirt. A WME packaged product that just made some box office history would be the Seth MacFarlane-Mark Wahlberg vehicle Ted, which is poised to become the highest grossing R-rated comedy internationally.
