Blind Side took Batman's spot.

Van Helsing maintains its position despite a strong challenge from Valentine's Day.

Iron Man holds off Iron Man 2, but looks to lose its spot to Inception very soon.

Should we be counting Infinity Wars under I? I think the official title is Avengers: Infinity War so it should fall under A otherwise X would not be X-Men: The Last Stand

Good thread, btw. I think letters and words are quite important for success. Though much less so for blockbusters, but still.
