50 FIRST DATES STILL IN FIRST

Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore’s date comedy 50 First Dates took in another $21 million over the weekend to keep it in first at the box office. The flick, which stars Barrymore as a memory impaired target of Sandler’s wooing, was at the top last week in its first week of release.

The highest debut of the week was Lindsay Lohan’s Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, which did $9.2 million, good enough for second place. The other three big movies debuting didn’t fare as well, and didn’t impress critics either. Gene Hackman and Ray Romano’s Welcome to Mooseport brought in $7 million for fourth place, Eurotrip landed at fifth with $6.6 million and Meg Ryan’s boxing film, Against the Ropes, only did $3 million and charted in eighth place.

Here’s the rest of the top 10: #3 Miracle ($8m); #6 Barbershop 2: Back in Business ($6.3m); #7 Mystic River ($3.1m); #9 The Butterfly Effect ($2.9m); The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King ($2.8m).
