Teenagers and a dog arrives early at the box office this year as animated adventure ''Scooby_Doo! The Movie narrowly fends off competition from fellow newcomer Hop and Source Code'' to take top spot in its opening weekend here in the UK (and the States, for that matter). The Warner Bros. animated film managed to pull in a strong £11.016m, with Russell Brand's CG-animation/live-action hybid takes $1.36m, and Duncan Jones' sci-fi thriller banking a shade less to claim second with £1.3m. Meanwhile the disappointment continues for Zack Snyder as Sucker Punch makes even less of an impact here in the UK than it did across the pond, debuting in fourth place with just £814k. Last week's number one film Limitless slips two places to third, a fate shared by historical actioner The Eagle in fifth, but the biggest drop of the week is reserved for the Belgian CG-animation A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventures, which sinks four places to sixth in its second weekend. Shifting down into the bottom half of the chart, the animated Western Rango and Liam Neeson action thriller Unknown both fall three places apiece to seventh and eighth respectively, while urban comedy Anuvahood drops two places and The Lincoln Lawyer slips one to prop up the chart in
