Box office blog: 'Baby' bumps out competition
After the successes of "Knocked Up" and "Juno," audiences showed more love for pregnancy comedies over the weekend, helping Tina Fey's lightweight "Baby Mama" earn $18.3 million to top the box office. Not bad for a pleasant if unmemorable movie that's helping to pass the time until summer movie season starts next week with "Iron Man." "Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay," which doesn't deliver the same high as "Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle," placed second with $14.6 million, and the ridiculously predictable thriller "Deception" landed at No. 10 with only $2.2 million.
Does Tina Fey have a long career ahead of her on the big screen? How awesome does "Iron Man" look?
