8 Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time $2.85M
9 Killers $1.94M
10 Jonah Hex $1.63M
"Toy Story 3" beat the competition this weekend again, rising above Sandler's comedy "Grown Ups" and the Cruise-Diaz action romance "Knight and Day."
In 10 days, "Toy Story 3" has made $226.6 million. It crossed the $200 million mark in eight days. "Finding Nemo," Pixar's highest grossing animated film, took 20 days. Will "Toy Story 3" take the top spot out of all the Pixar films? Well, it stills needs around $113 million for that honor.
The competition between funny-man Sandler and action-star Cruise proved that savage reviews and goofball jokes prove better for box office success. That and maybe more parents wanted to bring their kids along to a family comedy.
Overall, this was a pretty slow weekend.Dropping below the Top 4 you see some pretty small numbers compared those top earnings. "Jonah Hex" is in the dead zone with $15 million in total after its $60 million budget. That's a pretty big slap in the face to anyone who worked on that project.
Next week you're either in line for "Eclipse," staying at home to hide from the tweens and Twilight Moms, or planning on throwing garlic and silver to those previous mentioned groups while they wait in movie theater lines. Your choice!

Box Office results for the weekend!
1 Dear John$32.4 M
2 Avatar $23.6 M
3 From Paris With Love $8.1 M
4 Edge of Darkness $7.0 M
5 The Tooth Fairy $6.5 M
6 When in Rome $5.5 M
7 The Book of Eli $4.8 M
8 Crazy Heart$3.6 M
9 Legion $3.4 M
10 Sherlock Holmes $2.6 M
"Avatar" has been knocked off its box office throne after almost 8 weeks of dominating movie theaters. "Dear John" came in at No. 1 thanks to a ton of women looking to do something for Super Bowl weekend.
"The Notebook" opened at $13 M back in 2004, so I'm not sure where the precedent was for this. Could female audiences have been starved for content, and "When in Rome" wasn't doing the trick? The budget here was $25 M, which means you can expect a ton more Sparks' content in your future.
"Avatar" came in 2nd place, so obviously it's now a financial disaster, having only grossed $2.2 billion. (Whoa).
"From Paris With Love" flattened out in 3rd place. Opening a guy focused actioner on Super Bowl Sunday is either crazy insane or insane crazy. I'm not sure which one I'm leaning towards just yet.
The rest of the movies fell as expected, with only "Crazy Heart" being bumped up into the top ten once word of mouth got out on how awesome Jeff Bridges is in it (but he's just awesome in almost everything he's in).
