Your weekend box office:

1. The Bourne Legacy - $40.3 million--a noticeably lower take than the last two Bourne sequels, but not so bad considering those films did, relevantly, actually include Bourne.

2. The Campaign - $27.4 million, a weaker opening than the last few times Will Ferrell and someone acted retarded.

3. The Dark Knight Rises - $19.5 million. The film has now officially made all the remaining money The Avengers didn't make.

4. Hope Springs - $15.6 million that the world's collective moms should have put into retirement.

5. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days - $8.2 million, narrowly overcoming mankind's inate desire to see a version of Total Recall that stars Colin Farrell.
