Friday Box Office: Robin Hood On Target

robin_hood_2mv.jpg

Break up Universal! While the beleaguered studio's Robin Hood may not have been able to notch the No. 1 spot on Friday, It will gladly take a $13 million opening on the way to a likely $36 million weekend. (It will handily break $100 million worldwide). That's about $10 million off the pace of Iron Man 2, which suffered a Friday-to-Friday drop of more than 70 percent. Letters to Juliet and Just Wright opened at what you might call "modest" and "soft," respectively, while A Nightmare on Elm Street closed off the Top 5 for the last time in its lucrative, miserable run. Full figures after the jump.
