Based on Sunday’s estimates:
1) Scary Movie 4: $41 million (first week)
They were smart to include the scariest thing we saw in the last year: Tom Cruise on Oprah.
2) Ice Age: The Meltdown: $20 million ($147.1 million, third week)
In fairness to Denis Leary, the next installment should be “Ice Age: Diego Gets Peckish.”
3) The Benchwarmers: $10 million ($35.9 million, second week)
We’d take this moment to make fun of the ridiculous wig David Spade wears in this movie, but then we remember: he’s dating Heather Locklear. Damn.
4) The Wild: $9.5 million (first week)
When our guy was assigned to cover this, he said, “Just take my ‘Madagascar’ review and replace the title.”
5) Take the Lead: $6.7 million ($22.5 million, second week)
Never underestimate the power of dance. Or something.
