ENTERTAINMENT Blades of Glory' scores big in box office this weekend
ENTERTAINMENT
BOX GLEES — Stars-on-ice Will Ferrell and Jon Heder took the box office gold for the weekend.
Paramount and DreamWorks" "Blades of Glory," with Ferrell and Heder playing figure-skating rivals who become the sport's first men's pair, debuted as the No.1 movie with $33 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Disney's animated adventure "Meet the Robinsonson," about the time-traveling journey of a brilliant but lonely orphan, debuted in second place with $25.1 million.
The previous weekend's top movie — the Warner Bros. animated tale "TMNT," a revival of the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle" franchise — slipped to fourth place with $9.2 million, down a steep 62 percent from its $24.3 million debut. "TMNT" raised its 10-day total to $38.4 million.
After a monthlong surge, the overall box office declined. The top 12 movies took in $115 million, down 13 percent from the same weekend last year, when "Ice Age: The Meltdown" opened with $68 million.
"This is still a good weekend, a pretty healthy one-two punch with 'Blades of Glory' and 'Meet the robinson's at the top,' said Paul Dergarabedian, president of box-
office tracker Media By Numbers.

Ferrell scored the second-best
opening of his career, behind last
summer's "Talladge Nights: The
Ballad of Ricky Bobby," which took
in $47 million in its first weekend.
Movie attendance is up 4 percent this year, Dergarabedian said.
"It starts with a great concept, and the whole picture was cast so well," said DreamWorks spokesman Marvin Levy. "Another part of the surprise was, we got a ton of very, very good reviews."
"Meet the Robinsons" played in about 3,400 theaters and did especially well in a 3-D version at 600 cinemas, said Chuck Viane, head of distribution for Disney.
