Madea More Popular Than Hot Young Sorority Girls
Movies remained a popular form of distraction last weekend. These were the five most popular:
1. I Can Do Bad All By Myself - $24 million. Tyler Perry was right: he did bad all by himself. But apparently the rest of the U.S. needed the counsel of Madea to do bad this weekend.
2. 9 - $10.9 million. See? Computer-animated films can be original and successful! They don't need to have constant pop culture jokes or a Shrek! Oh, Shrek the Third opened at $121.6 million? Never mind. Continue with Shreks.
3. Inglourious Basterds - $6.5 million. All those people who keep saying, "I know, I know--I'll see it next week," really are slowly doing it.
4. All About Steve - $5.8 million. As much as I'm glad that Sorority Row flopped, I'm not sure the universally-panned All About Steve having a decent second week is any better.
5. The Final Destination - $5.5 million. What ended up being the final destination, anyway?
