It likely earned about $14 million Friday, and when all is said and done, it will likely join &#8220;The Vow&#8221; in the $35-42 million territory for the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The 3D re-release of &#8220;Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace&#8221; will land in third with about $9 million as it prepares for a weekend in the mid-$20 millions.  Surprisingly close-behind, Deadline forecasts, will be &#8220;Journey 2: The Mysterious Island.&#8221;  Though it likely only grossed in the $7 million territory Friday, the family film is expected to pickup steam Saturday and could find itself flirting with a $25 million weekend total.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&quot;The Vow,&quot; &quot;Safe House&quot; Wow at Box Office, &quot;Journey 2&quot; Also Impressive<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"This weekend&#039;s new releases did a number on the so-called &quot;box office slump&quot; Friday, delivering impressive grosses that should produce weekend totals\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2012\/02\/11\/the-vow-safe-house-wow-at-box-office-journey-2-also-impressive\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"&quot;The Vow,&quot; &quot;Safe House&quot; Wow at Box Office, &quot;Journey 2&quot; Also Impressive\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"This weekend&#039;s new releases did a number on the so-called &quot;box office slump&quot; Friday, delivering impressive grosses that should produce weekend totals\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2012\/02\/11\/the-vow-safe-house-wow-at-box-office-journey-2-also-impressive\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Headline Planet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2012-02-11T07:58:07+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Brian Cantor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cantorpedia\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@headlineplanet\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2012\/02\/11\/the-vow-safe-house-wow-at-box-office-journey-2-also-impressive\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2012\/02\/11\/the-vow-safe-house-wow-at-box-office-journey-2-also-impressive\/\",\"name\":\"\\\"The Vow,\\\" \\\"Safe House\\\" Wow at Box Office, \\\"Journey 2\\\" Also Impressive\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2012-02-11T07:58:07+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2012-02-11T07:58:07+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\"},\"description\":\"This weekend's new releases did a number on the so-called \\\"box office slump\\\" Friday, delivering impressive grosses that should produce weekend totals\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2012\/02\/11\/the-vow-safe-house-wow-at-box-office-journey-2-also-impressive\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/\",\"name\":\"Headline Planet\",\"description\":\"Music News &amp; Charts, TV News &amp; Spoilers\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\",\"name\":\"Brian Cantor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Brian Cantor\"},\"description\":\"Brian Cantor is the editor-in-chief for Headline Planet.
