Dancing Penguins Top Bond BO
'Happy Feet' Dances Past The Blond BondAnimated Penguins Earn $42M, 'Casino Royale' Takes Home $40M James Bond has met his match not a fellow spy but a tap-dancing penguin. The Warner Bros. animated penguin romp "Happy Feet" debuted with $42.3 million, grabbing an edge for the weekend's No. 1 slot over Sony's Bond adventure "Casino Royale," which opened with $40.6 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. The two films were close enough that their rankings could change when final numbers are released Monday. "'Happy Feet' is just ahead by a flipper," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of box-office tracker Exhibitor Relations. "It's unusual to have two movies this close, battling for that No. 1 position." Posted by: .com 2006-11-20 |
