    I'm shocked Rise of the Lycans didn't take first place on its opening week

    Yahoo! Movies - Weekend Box Office and Buzz

    I can't believe that security guard flick with that annoying dude is number one for a second week.

    People like to Laugh at Stupid stuff in these Hard Times.... The King of Queens imo was a Fantastic Half Hour Comedy Show..., Maybe thats the Buzz ?

      Well, as long as it does well, that is the most important thing. A half way decent gross will ensure more monster flicks.

        I'm honestly glad to see a PG-rated comedy do well. Comedies nowadays seem to be either a series of F-bombs or a vehcile for Disney's latest teen queen. There seems to be little in-between these days.

          Doesn't shock me, I haven't seen one bit of promotion for it in print or on tv.

                It performed almost as well as the first 2 did without the main star of the first ones. That's actually pretty impressive.

                      It's been the total opposite for me. Not an hour goes by when I am watching TV that they don't show the commercial at least once, usually more for it.

                        I figured it would have beat that flick out, as well, but it's really hard to hate Kevin James. He is just so every-dude.

                          Same here,it's still showing a lot,now with the guy saying critics say it's better then the first 2

                          It is just as good though That I gotta admit.

                            Kevin James was pretty funny on King Of Queens . I can see with things being so rough for a lot of people , Comedies are doing well . I would have chosen Underworld to see if I had a choice. I am excited about this third Installment. I ask around though and alot of people have mixed feelings about it. There were some not really thrilled with Evolution. I like both previous films and I doubt I will dislike this one. Comedies will tend to do slightly better than sequels of films , unless the Sequel is a Huge Monster Of A Franchise.

                              Well.... there's a fair amount you gotta wrap your head around with a monster flick like this: that there are vampires and werwolves, and they fight.... "Fat guy fall down" is pretty easy to follow.
