On video this week in the UK The Hobbit: The Battle of The Five Armies makes it debut on the chart at the top.

The Hobbit: The Battle of The Five Armies hit the UK box office on 12th December 2015 with a £9.7 million debut weekend.

Being hailed as the last chance to see a Middle Earth move at the cinema the film had a 7 week stay on the box office taking £40.9 million during that time.

The film did well across the globe, it took over $255 million in the US and across the globe it grossed $941.5 million.

In the UK it is the 37th highest grossing film ever while across the world it is the 27th highest grossing film ever.

Last weeks top film, Night At The Museum Secret of The Tomb, falls to number 4 this week.

Also new on the UK video chart is: Dumb and Dumber To at 2, Tinker Bell and The Legend of The Neverbeast at 3 and direct to video film Mankinds Last Stand at 9.

The Hobbit series of movies has never quite been the box office kings that The Lord of the Rings Series was, but The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies this week flies in as the top film of the weekend.

Taking a very respectable £9.8 million the third and last film in The Hobbit series, and most likely The Middle Earth saga, manages to beat everything else with little trouble, and it also beats the second of The Hobbit films debut gross, but not the firsts.

The new number one film takes over from last weeks top film Paddington which falls a single place after two weeks at the top, it's total gross to date is £14.3 million.

Also new this week is Tinker Bell and The Legend of The Neverbeast which lands at number 7.

With such a big new release there were no other new films on the box office this week, and the Peter Jackson directed movie will most likely suck up most of the cast over the next couple of weeks.
