US Box Office
Not the typical Christmas movie, but still a family thing dominated the box office, as Meet the Fockers took in $44.7 million in the weekend.
Cosby’s Fat Albert has to do with the number 2 spot (formerly an animated TV series in the 70’s), starring Kenan Thompson, with $12.7 million. Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events drops to the 3rd place with $12.5 million.
Playing in half the number of theatres is The Aviator, but still flying in enough dough ($9.4 million) to end up number 4. Ocean’s Twelve also still doing well with $8.6 million, rounding off the top 5.
