Repeat scene partners Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson topped the weekend box office as Fool's Gold drew $22 million in its debut. Coming in second was Martin Lawrence's Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins, which opened with $17.1 mil.

Rounding out the top five were Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert ($10.5 million), The Eye ($6.6 mil) and Juno ($5.73 mil).

Paris Hilton's The Hottie and the Nottie bombed with a take of just $25,000 on 111 screens, or an average of about $225 (20 people?) per screening.

That's not per screening but per screen. So if one theater showed, say, four showings of the movie a day Friday-Sunday, the movie averaged under 2 people per showing.

I hope they held on to Paris' paycheck. It's a real shame that she'll still get paid for making such a bomb!

Well, I'll settle for that kind of news about Paris. Maybe the media punching bag will get the hint and drive off a cliff for her big finish.

I'd love for someone to interview these people who actually paid to see Paris' movie. Further proff that some people have way too much time and way too much money. Even if every other movie in the cineplex was sold out there is simply no justification for paying to see this movie! :-p

Um, isn't One Night In Paris her Sex Tape?

LOL. I'll bet that one made much more money than this one, and there was no production budget. Max Profit!!

She should probably make a sequel to that one then.....

I could go on all day....
