Hangover Holdover at #1?
by Squirrel on Jun.13, 2009, under News and Notes

The Hangover racked up another $10.5 million from Friday audiences to position itself as the first film of the summer to take the b.o. crown two weeks in a row. It’s expected to make $32 million for the weekend which is a very nice hold from its $45 million boffo opening last week. Disney/Pixar’s Up will most likely be the bridesmaid again continuing its impressive run by adding another $8.9 million and an estimated $30 million for the weekend.
The Denzel Washington/John Travolta starrer The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 made out with $8.3 million and an estimated weekend take of just north of $25 million. Not bad, but not as high as the studio had hoped.
And to the surprise of no one save for ardent fans of Meet Dave, Eddie Murphy’s Imagine That was a huge bomb garnering a measly $1.8 million while playing in over 3000 theaters and an expected $6 million weekend.
