It's 'Transformers' again

Ouch, kind of a weak weekend at the box office. The top movie made $70 million less than last week, and the awful-looking "Zookeeper" placed third, ahead of a Pixar flick.

From The Associated Press:
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Where available, latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released today.
1. “Transformers: Dark of the Moon,” $47 million ($93 million international). (Review by The News-Herald's Mark Meszoros)
