Still the "King"

As we approach the giant start of the summer movie season of 2002, The Scorpion King gets it last spot (in all likelyhood) at the top by taking in another 18 million. That's a 50% drop from last week, but still quite good. In second and still holding on is Changing Lanes with 9 million, followed by newcomer Jason X with a partly 6.6 million for its opening weekend. Murder By Numbers seems to be a disappointment, taking in 6.3 this past weekend with another newcomer Life Or Something Like It a drop below it with 6.2.

The Rookie brought in another 5.6 to its tally, while Ice Age froze up another 5 million. Rounding out our top ten is Panic Room with 4.2 million, High Crimes with 3.1 and finally, The Sweetest Thing with 2.9.

Stay tuned for next weekend... Spider-Man is on his way to conquer the box office as an exciting season of movies begin!
