The box office is taking a moment, after a very busy Thanksgiving weekend. And we don't know about you, but we have a laundry list of movies left to see, so it's kind of a good thing that no big releases land this week, right?

We're taking a look at four films still making their mark with audiences. Which one of these will get you to the cineplex this weekend?

Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 proves that vampires still give us the chills (in a good way, of course). Don't we all still wear our Team Edward and Team Jacob T-shirts to sleep every night? Anyway, this is the one where Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) get married, have babies and live happily ever after. Well, not exactly but you'll just have to go see it just to be sure.

The Muppets movie is as timeless as the romance between Kermit and Miss Piggy, so don't try to fight it any longer because this isn't your average kid flick. You'll certainly fall in love all over again with those zany creatures, especially that Gary character. We love you Jason Segel!

For those of you that still claim to be choreo-phobic, it's time to moonwalk your way over to see Happy Feet Two! Fuzzy little penguins that sing and dance can gladly take an hour and 40 minutes of our lives as long as they sing "Sexy Back" with panache. Oh wait, they do, so count us in!

Academy Award-winning director Martin Scorsese brings yet another inspiring story to life in Hugo. This heart-warmer takes you on a truly magical journey of a very resourceful boy, trying to unlock the secrets of a mystery left by his late father. Make sure you see it in the highest quality 3-D for the ultimate experience!

Will any of these movies get you in the theaters this weekend? We highly recommend you consider making it a double-feature day, complete with tons of Thanksgiving leftovers snacks. Eager to see something else? Let us know in the comments!
