Friday Box Office: Still Hungover

Maybe some guys can handle Vegas after all. The Hangover extended its stay Friday at the box office's penthouse suite, easily knocking out The Taking of Pelham 123 on a mediocre opening day. As expected, Up remains strong -- much to the detriment of Eddie Murphy's new Imagine That, which barely trumped last year's Meet Dave (by $100,000) as the worst opening day of the star's career. Might be time to bust the old Detroit Lions jacket out of wardrobe, call Brett Ratner and get Axel Foley back on the streets; this slide is getting excruciating to watch.
