Kind of a surprise, thought Doomsday would have had a better showing. 10,000 BC about where I thought in dollars but still number 2, well maybe that is a good number for it.

Why the low screencount for Doomsday?

Wouldn't be surprised if it hadn't tested well, either.

Still, considering how much it was advertised on TV, I'm surpised it had so few screens

It'll make it's money back on DVD. It's a no-brainer and a potential cult classic.

Was quite disappointed in Horton, though it's still better than the other Dr Seuss movies. They took a simple, elegant story and piled on a truckload of window dressing. The animation's good but I'd stick with the book.
