It was a quiet week across Australia but Jackass 3D stayed on top in its second week over The Social Network. New apocalyptic release Skyline overtook Red for third place but the latter still holds strong in its third week of release.

Other new entries into the top 10 were English comedy Wild Target and war drama The American. Far superior film Winter’s Bone opened on just 12 screens to little fanfare. Speaking of fanfare, that will come about like a tsunami this week with the opening of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Do I need to explain?
