'Madagascar 3' stays at #1 at box office!

Once again ‘Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted’ rules the box office with $35.5 million dollars, earning a total of $120.5 million dollars. The animated film has continued to surprise everyone holding on to the number one spot.

‘Prometheus’ also stays strong at number two with $20.2 million dollars; the sci-fi movie tried to win the number one spot but failed. This film was suspected to become a summer blockbuster; it’s a wonder what made the public turn away.

The Broadway musical turned film ‘Rock of Ages’ landed on the third spot with $15.1 million dollars. This amount is far below of other musicals adapted to the big screen, such as ‘Mamma Mia!’ or Shankman’s own ‘Hairspray’, which opened with $27.5 million dollars in 2007.
