Wiki News/Best Friends Forever vacations box office

Walt Disney Pictures' "Best Friends Forever: The Movie", a motion picture of Disney Channel's hit TV show, "Best Friends Forever" got off a good start to the big screen as Keke Palmer sings her voice out to the top of the box office this weekend. Starring herself, along with Josh Hutcherson, Dylan Patton, Dakota Fanning, Alyson Stoner and Jason Dolley came to the top audiences gave them $18.4 million Friday in 3,525 locations. This is a one big opening for a G rating movie this year, and this is the only movie to do so. Even if that's impressive, wait till this movie is going to open at least $30-55 million over the following weekend to check if it can become a big hit than "High School Musical 3: Senior Year", which brought $42 million in 3,623 locations in 2008.

Shawn Levy's new comedy "Date Night" starts off a close second at the North American box office. Starring Tina Fey and Steve Carell, the 20th Century Fox film bagged $9.3 million Friday via an average of $2,756 per theater at 3,374 locations. That's a pretty decent one-day gross indeed.

At No. 2, Warner's messy "Clash of the Titans" remake generated another $8.4 million, which is not bad either. The film is still playing at 3,802 locations, and its cumulative gross currently stands at $92 million after a strong one-week run. Too bad the movie sucks, especially in 3D.

Meanwhile, DreamWorks Animation's 3D-animated adventure "How to Train Your Dragon" picked up $7.1 million, lifting its total haul to $115.6 million. Following in fourth place with $3.6 million was Miley Cyrus's latest drama "The Last Song," which reached a cume of $36 million.

Tyler Perry landed in fifth place Friday, and his disappointing sequel "Why Did I Get Married Too?" brought in $3.5 million. Domestically, the film has reached a total gross of $41 million. Does it deserve any of it? In my book, it sure doesn't. Full weekend box office result will be posted tomorrow.
