The Never-Ending Money Derby

Your U.S.-Canada box office is looking up:

Paranormal Activity 3 -- $26.2 million

Footloose -- $3.5 million ($23.8 million)

Real Steel -- $3.1 million ($59 million)

Three Musketeers -- $2.9 million

Ides of March -- $1.5 million ($25.8 million)

The c.g. robots drop to the third position, and Summit fails to launch the 112th movie version of Monsieur Dumas's book about the French swordsmen. (I read the novel a long time ago and remember it as being great, but come on. It ain't exactly a fresh grocery item, you know? Richard Lester made the story work on screen, but Mr. Anderson, he has some challenges, yes?)
