Box office blog: Ferrell 'Semi'-fouls out

 

Yes, Will Ferrell's latest sports comedy, "Semi-Pro," topped the box office this weekend. But only $15.3 million? That's pretty weak for a movie with one of the biggest stars in comedy, and just barely enough to hold off last week's champ, "Vantage Point," which brought in another $13 million. The ridiculous piece of historical fiction "The Other Boleyn Girl"--with an emphasis on the fiction part--placed fourth with $8.3 million, and Christina Ricci's effective fairy tale "Penelope" landed at No. 8 with $4 million.

Does this mean people have had enough Will Ferrell sports movies? How huge will numbers be for this weekend's mammoth-sized, mammoth-starring "10,000 BC"?
