“The Lord of the Rings” was “The Lord of the
Screen” until “Along Came Polly” to end the King’s four-week box office
reign.
“Along Came Polly” is the new romantic
comedy staring Ben Stiller and Jennifer Aniston. Ben and Jen (no, not Affleck
and Lopez) captured the top of the box office over the weekend when Polly
grossed and estimated $27.6 million at North American theatres.
They left “Lord of the Rings” in their
dust. The final installment in the Rings trilogy grossed an estimated $10.2
million, landing at No. 4, behind the second week of Tim Burton’s “Big
Fish”, which had an estimated gross of $10.4 million, and the new Ice Cube
action flick "Torque" ($10.3 million).
But who knows, it looked like Fish was
going to win last weekend but when the final numbers came in Rings remained
the King.
Estimated Box Office according to a ABC
news report:
1 - “Along Came Polly” - $27.6 million.
2 - “Big Fish” - $10.4 million.
3 - “Torque” - $10.3 million.
4 - “The Lord of the Rings: The Return
of the King” - $10.2 million.
5 - “Cheaper by the Dozen” - $8.7 million.
6 - “Cold Mountain” - $7 million.
7 - “Something's Gotta Give” - $6 million.
8 - “My Baby's Daddy” - $3.6 million.
9 - “The Last Samurai” - $3.12 million.
10 - “Calendar Girls” - $3.10 million.
