As predicted by the media, Knocked Up amused its way into the #2 spot with $29.3 mil, while mystery thriller Mr. Brooks snuck into the #4 spot with $10 mil. Of the three least hyped films, Gracie was the one to debut in the top 10 at #7 with $1.4 mil. Pretty good for an indie. The very much underappreciated Day Watch only scraped together $46,300. And, um, I'm assuming only God knows why Lucy Lui's film, Rise: Blood Hunter, hasn't been recorded as making any cash at the box office...at all. The other three films in the top 5 were predictably Pirates of the Caribbean, which hauled in $43 mil this week at the #1 spot, Shrek the Third, which swindled kids out of $26.7 mil into the 3rd spot, and Spiderman 3, which crawled into the 5th spot with $7.5 mil.
Ocean's 13 should shake things up next week. One thing the top 5 is missing is a little clever thievery. And we'll find out once and for all if the little tykes have had their fill of the penguin attack that's ravaged the animated film scene, when Surf's Up hits theaters.
