Based on Sunday’s estimates, courtesy of boxofficemojo.com:
1) Ghost Rider: $19.7 million, $78.6 million to date (owner: Will Harris, What’s All This, Then?)
Suddenly, the idea of James Cameron making an “Aquaman” movie doesn’t seem so strange after all. Scary, yes, but not strange.
2) The Number 23: $15.1 million (Deb Medsker, Punch and Pie Pictures)
Let’s see, $15.1 million, which means 1+5+1 equals 23 New Line employees getting their asses handed to them Monday morning.
3) Bridge to Terabithia: $13.5 million, $46.2 million to date (Bill Clark, Norbit Will Tank)
In an unrelated story, Dakota Fanning was seen walking into a movie theater with a bazooka.
4) Reno 911: Miami: $10.4 million (Jason Zingale, Seven Strangers Pictures)
Heh heh, they made a joke about a blowhole. Who doesn’t love blowholes?
5) Norbit: $9.7 million, $74.6 million to date (owner: David Medsker, Republicans for Voldemort)
All right, now I’ll admit it: I’m ashamed that this movie is making my studio so much money.
9) The Astronaut Farmer: $4.5 million (owner: Kristin Dreyer Kramer, Nights and Weekends)
It’s only a matter of time before the PG rating system just disappears altogether in a haze of who-the-hell-cares. Sad.
This week: David Fincher’s shockingly low-key “Zodiac” finally makes it debut, while William H. Macy foregoes 15 years of street cred to make a movie with Tim Allen, John Travolta and Martin Lawrence (“Wild Hogs”).
