Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest continued to make movie history in it's second weekend, with a haul that most film studio executives probably wouldn't mind having for an opening. With over $62 million for the weekend (the 3rd highest grossing second weekend, behind Shrek 2 and Spider-Man), Pirates 2 claimed the ten-day opening record from Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, with a total of $258.2 million dollars.
Meanwhile, "Little Man" and "You, Me and Dupree" had solid debuts as new releases, and managed to claim the second and third spots, both with over $21 million. With a couple of last week's top ten dropping off the list, the only other new face on the list was the animated flick, "A Scanner Darkly" starring Keannu Reeves, which actually was in it's second week.
Last weekend's full top 10 was as follows:
1) Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest - $62.2 M
2) Little Man - $21.7 M
3) You, Me and Dupree - $21.3 M
4) Superman Returns - $11.6 M
5) The Devil Wears Prada - $10.5 M
6) Cars - $7.5 M
7) Click - $7 M
8) The Lake House - $1.6 M
