We had high hopes for
Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut Whip It! this weekend, but a bunch of zombies were the big winners at the box office!
Zombieland, starring Woody Harrelson, took the top spot, raking in $25 million this weekend. And fellow Sony picture Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs took second place with $16.7 million! And that was its third week in theaters!

1. Zombieland $25 million
2.
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs $16.7 million
3. Toy Story and Toy Story 2 3-D $12.5 million
