Kraven and The Lord of the Rings do not hunt at the box office

After a quiet start last week, December’s big movies kicked off this weekend with Sony. Kraven the hunter and the WB anime movie The Lord of the Rings: The Rohirrim War. Despite being new and fresh features, neither film could withstand the power of Disney and the Wizard of Oz.
