For the sixth time in eight tries, cross-dressing mogul Tyler Perry is on track for a number-one opening at the box office. His I Can Do Bad All By Myself coaxed a terrific $8.6 million from moviegoers on Friday, outgunning second-place finisher 9 by more than double. The week's horror tandem of Sorority Row and Whiteout underperformed in third and sixth places respectively; they were separated by Inglourious Basterds (which will have just cracked $100 million at press time) and All About Steve. Poor, poor Sacramento. Click through for Friday's complete top 10.
