Box office blog: Cavemen clean up
History buffs are not going to like this: The absurdly inaccurate—and unintentionally hilarious—action epic "10,000 BC" raked it in over the weekend, topping the box office with $35.7 million. It was a much more impressive debut than the equally terrible but less funny "College Road Trip," which placed second with a below-expectations $14 million. (Just a thought: Does anyone else think Martin Lawrence and Raven-Symone starring in a movie together may be a sign of the apocalypse?) The dull heist movie, "The Bank Job," didn't do much either, placing fifth with $5.71 million.
Does it bother you if movies about history have no actual facts? Or do you just want to see a lot of mammoths, saber-tooth tigers and prehistoric heroes battle it out?
