Wiki News/"Carly" more popular than "Inception" at boxoffice!



“iCarly: The Movie” topped the Boxoffice earning $50 million, taking over last week's “Inception” $27.5 million in its third weekend, and may want revenge for next week's box office. Last week “Salt” failed to take the lead in boxoffice and this week Angelina Jolie’s latest flick fell on the fourth place. No. 3 in Boxoffice is “Dinner With Schmucks” that earned $23.3 million in its first weekend. Still, Miranda Cosgrove became more popular than Leonardo DiCaprio this weekend and Steve Carell is still a funny guy.

Also, a new entry in the theaters was “Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore,” the sequel that failed the expectations making only $12.5 million. Well, I guess kids are into vampires now and talking cats and dogs are not that appealing anymore.

So “iCarly” ruled the North American boxoffice, making Miranda Cosgrove one happiest girl on earth to take the weekend box office out of “Inception”. After three weekends, Inception made $193.3 million, according to Warner Bros., and might end up making up to $300 million. It is a spectacular movie, I sure think this is Leonardo DiCaprio and Chris Nolan’s year!

Here’s the top 10 BoxOffice movies for this weekend:

1. “iCarly: The Movie” - $50.3 million. 2. “Inception” – $27.5 million. 3. “Dinner for Schmucks” – $23.3 million. 4. “Salt” – $19.2 million. 5. “Despicable Me” – $15.5 million. 6. “Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore” – $12.5 million. 7. “Charlie St. Cloud” – $12.1 million. 8. “Toy Story 3″ – $5 million. 9. “Grown Ups” – $4.5 million. 10. “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” – $4.3 million.
