While the live-action Talladega Nights held onto the top spot for the second week, Barnyard: The Original Party Animals slid to the 4th position, taking in $10,069,000 last weekend. Paramount's attempt to horn in on the CG action has made $34,085,000 in its 2 weeks, well on its way to making back its $51 million price tag.
Meanwhile, Sony's Monster House quickly fell to #10, making only $3,300,000 last weekend. So far, the animated film has pulled in $63,678,000 over its 4-week run, which means Monster House is still $12 million shy of making back its production costs.
Monster House's woes are still nothing compared to Warner Bros.' The Ant Bully, which plummeted 7 spots to the #15 slot. It took in a paltry $1,770,000 last weekend, bringing its 3-week total to $22,381,000. WB hasn't disclosed The Ant Bully's production costs, but it's safe to say that the film is nowhere near turning a profit.
Anyway, here's the Top 10:
1) Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (Sony): $23,000,000 ($91,217,000 over 2 weeks)
2) Step Up (Buena Vista): $21,065,000 (NEW)
