'Couples Retreat' wins over box office and 'Paranormal Activity' shocks us all


In this Sunday's Box Office Report, we have:

1. "Couples Retreat" ($35.3 million)
2. "Zombieland" ($15 million)
3. "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" ($12 million)
4. "Toy Story" & "Toy Story 2" (3-D Double Feature) ($7.7 million)
5. "Paranormal Activity" ($7 million)



Universal's Couples Retreat took the number one spot this weekend and gained only half of it's $70 million budget back... I'm sure they'll break even soon. 

Sony must be proud of Zombieland and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs earning 2nd and 3rd places with $15 million and $12 million repectively

The clencher is the 5th place honoree, Paranormal Activity.  Don't let the 5th place title fool you, this movie has done amazingingly well for such a low budget film that was only released in 159 theaters!!  Seems like this movie is going to reach wide release status soon thanks to its fans and eager horror lovers.  

I still need to see this flick to capture the buzz forming around it!  :)
