Weekend BoxOffice Report July 17th

Try as they might the newcomers this week had practically no chance in hell to upstage the record breaking "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest". After grossing over $250 million in one week, Pirates has already surpassed it's production budget of $225 Mil. Someone get a video camera, I'm sure the disney execs are riverdancing around their offices right about now. Newcomers "Little Man" and "You, Me, and Dupree" take the second and third spots without coming close to the "Pirates" gross. I'm a little dissapointed that the Wayans brother's "Little Man", based on a Looney Tunes plot device of all things, just barely beat "You, Me and Dupree" this week. Apparently Owen Wilson needs to stop his ventures away from Buddy-films. Or at least not when he's put into direct competition with a bunch of Pirates. "Superman Returns" continues to keep movie-goers interested, as does Disney/Pixar's "Cars" which is in it's 6th week of release.
