I Am Legend starring Will Smith as Dr. Robert Neville, showed what can happen with films people want to see: Records are broken and Legends are set. I Am Legend grossed $76.5 million, which is more than has been made by any film (ever) opening in December.
Alvin and The Chipmunks came in second with $45 million. Golden Compass came in third at a disappointing $9 million.
