The latest Harry Potter managed to easily make its way across the $200 million mark, with no help from amped up 3D prices. WB execs are no doubt searching for some way to convince good old J.K. to pen a prequel.
2. Tangled

Screens: 3,603
Weeks: 1
The weekend's biggest surprise was Disney's latest animated flick, which nearly doubled expectations with the help of that glorious 3D ticket pricing. Hope you stocked up on those Rapunzel dolls for the kids on Friday!
3. Megamind 3D

Hey, you gotta take the kids to something when you find out Tangled is sold out...

5. Burlesque

Screens: 3,037

The inspired teaming of Cher and Christina proved to not quite be the Beyonce and Jennifer of Dreamgirls, but something tells me this little gem will be finding a very nice place on the LOGO network by next Thanksgiving.
6. Love And Other Drugs
Gross: $9,600,000 ($13,800,000)
Screens: 2,455
Weeks: 1
It appears audiences only want to see Jake and Annie when he's a gay cowboy and she is rocking an assortment of odd wigs. Apparently no amount of nudity, tears or artistically controlled hand shaking could get anyone in the seats for this weepie.
7. Faster
Gross: $8,500,000 ($11,800,000)
Screens: 2,454

Did anyone even know this movie was being released this week?
