"CARS 2" ZOOMS TO TOP OF THE BOX OFFICE


Still from Cars 2
Cars 2 accelerates all the way to the top of the Box Office this weekend with $67 million earned for Disney. This result bests its predecessor's performance in its 2006 debut, earning $60 million on opening weekend.

Bad Teacher starring Cameron Diaz, Jason Segel and Justin Timberlake debuts in second for Sony Pictures, with an impressive $31 million despite negative reviews overall (46% on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer). On any other weekend this would place it on top.

Last week's champion Green Lantern slips to third with $18 million, ahead of Super 8 with $12.2 million. Mr. Popper's Penguins starring Jim Carrey continues to go strong still in fifth spot with $11 million this weekend, bringing its three-week tally to $95.3 million.

Bridesmaids surprisingly is still in the game in eighth spot with $5.5 million. In it seven-week run it has brought in $146.8 million for Universal Pictures.  Meanwhile, Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris slips to tenth spot this weekend with $4.2 million.
