As expected, Walt Disney’s A  Christmas Carol took the No. 1 spot at the North American box office  this weekend with a solid $31 million in ticket sales, according to studio  estimates Sunday.
Starring Jim Carrey (above), the Robert Zemeckis-directed 3D  motion-capture adventure tale based on Charles Dickens’ classic  opened at 3,683  locations and scored an average of $8,417 per theater, enough to crush its  competition. 

At No. 2, Michael Jackson’s This  Is It delivered another strong performance, earning $14 million at 3,481  locations. Sony’s documentary about the late pop star’s planned concert series  lifted its total gross to an impressive $57.8 million.

Michael Jackson, one of the two or three biggest pop-music icons of the second half of the 20th century,   died of a heart attack at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles earlier today. Jackson was 50. Beginning July 12, he was scheduled to give a series of already sold-out London-area shows &#8212; 1 million tickets were gone within a matter of hours. 
Despite his enormous success &#8212; 750 million albums sold worldwide; 13 Grammy awards &#8212; Jackson&#8217;s life a difficult one.
