-$15.5M/$46.1M "The Facebook Movie" proves it still has a lot of friends as it suffered the 2nd week percentage drop of any #1 film this year.
2. Life as We Know It
- $14.6M 70% of the audience was female for this Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel rom-com, meaning there were a lot of dudes who faked illness rather than having to sit through it. Good job, men. Believe it or not this isn't the best opening of the year for Heigl. That distinction goes to Killers. I know, right?
3. Secretariat
- $12.6M Disney was banking on a lot of Oscar buzz surrounding its latest horse racing drama,but if the hard numbers are to be believed then it has a long way to go to match Seabsicut. In 2003 Seabiscuit opened to over $20M, and later was nominated for Best Picture.
4. Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'hoole
- $7.01M/$39.4M 5. My Soul to Take
- $6.92M Despite a dominance of 3D screens(86%), Wes Craven's first writing/directing gig since 1994 fell far short of typical horror expectations.
6. The Town
- $6.35M/$73.8M 7. Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
- $4.62M/$43.7M Should surpass the entire theatrical run of Wall Street in a few days. Adjusted for inflation the sequel is sorta getting it's butt kicked.
8. Easy A
- $4.2M/$48.1M 9. Case 39
- $2.63M/$9.6M 10. You Again
- $2.47M/$20.7M
