If you’re wondering if the much advertisedÂ Ninja Assassin (#6- $21M)Â did well, orFantastic Mr. Fox (#9- $10.1M)Â from director Wes Anderson — the answer is yes, but neither made it to the top 5. Â In fact, there is only one new release that made it to the top 5. Â The throughly predictable, completely rehashed Robin Williams flick Old Dogs came in at #4 with a 4 day haul of $25M.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon held court for the second week in a row bringing another $42M to the Vampire empire, an empire that now has $231M in it’s coffin. Â Sandra Bullock actually has herself a bonafide hit for once. Â The Blind Side came in 2nd with $40M over the weekend. Â Audiences are still giving Hollywood the license to create more cheesy big budget CGI end of the world flicks, by placing 2012 at #3 and a $18M take. Â The forgetful A Christmas Carol brought up the rear at #5, adding another $16M to it’s total.
