A 'Super' No. 1 movie
What might surprise me most about this weekend's blockbuster numbers is that "Fast Five" is still in the top 10. Didn't anyone see The Onion's interview with the screenwriter? For a 5-year-old, that kid apparently makes pretty good movies.
I'm somewhat surprised that "Judy Moody" opened so low. Usually family-friendly movies are big box office draws -- but maybe not as much without the names "Pixar" or "Disney" behind them.
