For the third week in a row, Will Ferrell's latest comedy keeps the top spot at the box office, with SOAP nipping at it's heels and missing out by a few thousand bucks. I'm guessing that Sam Jackson is getting a little "tired of these mothefucking NASCARs on this motherfucking countdown". "World Trace Center" takes up third, showing that milking tragedies for cash is still a venerable and profitable endeavour.
"Accepted" opens up at #4. It wasn't thoroughly rejected at the box office though. It seemed everyone kind of spread their dough around this past weekend. Not a single movie made over 15 million. Like "Step Up", which steps down to the 5th spot after a surprising 2nd spot last week. This movie's "success" will ensure the future of many more urban dance-themed movies. "Barnyard: The Original Party Animals" seems to be running our of steam as it drops a couple more spots.
Indie-darling "Little Miss Sunshine" makes its first appearance in the top 10 this weekend. It manages to beat out PotC, and expect it to climb up the charts a little more as its wide release keeps opening up on more theaters this weekend. Meanwhile, "Material Girls" make enough money to annoy, but the Duff sisters are not making as much money as the Olson's would . . . so I don't expect many more cinematic outings from them. Which is a good thing. Rounding out the top 10 is "Pulse" which might be scary . . . but who cares, it stars Kristen Bell, who is just riduculously hot. If I had money, I'd go watch that just for her. Totals for this weekend's numbers are back to monochromatic bold white. In honor of the super-whiteness that comes with Nascar.
