Beverly Hills Chihuahua
It's late, I'm tired, and I am looking back on another weekend where I've run errands, done chores, and watched my son play lots of baseball. I love watching my son play baseball, but other than that, I really don't do much for myself. One of the things I am missing out on is going to the movies. I really don't have anyone to go to the movies with. My son used to want to go to the movies with me, but he is 13 now and would much rather go with his friends.

Beverly Hills Chihuahua Stylin' @ No.1 US Box Office

'Beverly Hills Chihuahua' Top Dog With $29m Debut, Oct. 3-5, 2008
If America is in a recession it sure doesn't seem to be affecting the movie industry, as Disney's latest foray into the talking dog genre, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, clawed its way to the top spot this weekend with a sizzling $29 million debut. With seven films making their wide release debuts (three of them outside the top ten), and led by those yapping canines, the box office grossed a whopping $91 million this weekend, surging past last year's comparable frame by 44%.
Disney's talking animal family comedy Beverly Hills Chihuahua was the perfect medicine to the continually dire financial news dominating the headlines this past week, as the PG-rated flick took in $29 million in its debut frame, averaging a very impressive $9,020 in 3,215 theaters. It was the biggest opening for a children's film since June's Wall-e (a Disney/Pixar release) opened with an impressive $63.1 million. Permalink / Comments
