VIDEO: "Frozen" Can"t Catch "Fire," But Both Feast Over Holiday

Fire topped the box office with $110.2 million over the five-day Thanksgiving weekend, according to studio estimates from box office trackers Rentrak. The impressive haul in Fire’s second weekend marks the largest debut ever for a film over the Thanksgiving weekend, smashing the record of $82.4 million set by Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in 2001. The $130 million Jennifer Lawrence sequel has collected $296.5 million since its release Nov. 22.
