Bee Movie tried to sting first but was squashed by mafia flick American Gangsta which won at the box office bringing in an estimated $ 46.3 million. This was the biggest ever opening weekend for both Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe. But Bee Movie did do very well, grossing an estimated $39.1 million. Saw 4 held strong with $11 million, and Steve Carrell‘s new comedy Dan In Real Life took 4th with $8.12 million. 30 Days of Night rounded off the top 5 bringing in $4 million. It looks like the Writers will strike tonight at 12:01 AM, so say goodbye to late night shows for awhile. In the meantime, enjoy this pic below…
