FILM: Box Office Results 6/11/07


Ocean's Thirteen swindled their way to a cool $37 mil and the #1 spot, while Surf's Up came in at #4 with $18 mil, proving that--although it's only a third of what Happy Feet tap danced to in the first week--those waddling bastards still have a few flicks left in them. Hostel: Part II came in at #6 with $8.8 mil, half of what they scared out of the moviegoers of the first flick in the first weekend.

Knocked Up was bumped down just one slot into the #3 spot, while Mr. Brooks dropped three spots to #7 and Gracie dropped four to #11. As for the blockbusters, Ocean's bumped Pirates out of the top spot to #2, and Shrek the Third got shoved to #5. But both have already cleared, in just three-four weeks, what half of their second films grossed. Meanwhile, Spider-Man 3, at #8, is just $50 mil short of beating Spider-Man 2's proceeds.

This weekend we'll see if Nancy Drew and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer are a match for a couple of thieves, a pregnant chick, surfing penguins, and an ogre.
