The Hunger Games: Catching Fire continued its box office rampage through the long Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

The franchise blockbuster earned $110.2 million for the Wednesday-through-Sunday period, enough to stay atop the chart for a second consecutive week.

That amount also breaks previous 3-day and 5-day record totals for Thanksgiving weekend.

The new animated Disney film Frozen wrapped up second place with $90.6 million, earning the biggest Thanksgiving weekend opening ever.

Thor: The Dark World was #3 with $14.4 million, beating The Best Man Holiday ($11.8 million) and Delivery Man ($8.8 million).

Rounding out the Top 10 were new Jason Statham-James Franco release Homefront ($8.8 million), The Book Thief ($6 million), Black Nativity ($4 million), Philomena ($4 million), and Last Vegas ($3.6 million).
