Jennifer Aniston finally has something to hold over Brad Pitt.
Aniston and Owen Wilson's family comedy, Marley & Me, grossed $14.8 million yesterday, the highest one-day total ever for a film opening on Christmas. We didn't see that record coming.
However, Pitt did okay for himself, too.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button set the mark for the second-highest Christmas opening of all-time. It earned $11.8 million yesterday.

Jennifer Aniston is everywhere these days.
While the actress has posed naked for the cover of GQ and talked a bit about Brangelina, we were more concerned about her thoughts on Marley & Me.
In an interview with ComingSoon.net, the former Friends star discussed her co-starring canines...
Can you talk about the challenges of working with a dog and did having dogs help you in the process?
Well, I think it helped only because I wasn't afraid of dogs but honestly he was so easy to work with. I would say the younger Marleys were a little bit more challenging for the trainers. We had a ball, we never had a hard time.
Was there any scene that was difficult or took a long time to get?
The scene where we were taking him to get neutered. That was definitely a challenging scene in the car 'cause you also have Matilda in the back seat, the trainer who's fantastic. It was just a lot of action for the dog.
