"Hancock #1"
at www.wildaboutmovies.com

It should come as a 'surprise' to nobody that the worst movie of 2008, thus far, "Hancock," debuted at #1. The Will Smith vehicle grabbed over $107 million from its Tuesday night opening through Sunday night. The Abigail Breslin movie "Kit Kittredege" bombed big time, accumulating only $1953 per screen, compared to the over $16600 from "Hancock." Both "Walle" and "Wanted" continue to perform spectacularly at the movie box office their second weekend in movie theaters.
