Mars Needs Moms FlopWatch: Good News, Bad News About Week 2

Mars Needs Moms, a.k.a. the year's most sensationally expensive bomb to date, stumbled into its second week of release on the same 3,117 screens where it opened Mar. 11. The result was a respectable 23.1% drop from its sad, sad first frame. That's the good news. The bad news is that MNM's estimated $5.3 million gross averaged out to a sad, sad $1,706 per screen, edging Treasure Planet's $1,719 average to become Disney's worst second-week wide-release performer ever. Congrats? [Box Office Mojo]
