Summary
On a weekend when Hollywood competed with Christmas gatherings and fierce snow storms in the Northeast and Southeast, Little Fockers was no.1 at the box office.The third installment of the Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro series of in-law comedy was to earn $34 million over the three-day weekend, and $48.3 million since opening on Wednesday, according to studio estimates Sunday. That was less than the debut of the 2004 sequel, Meet the Fockers, which opened to $46.1 million, but more than the original, Meet the Parents, which made $28.6 million in its opening weekend. It was an over-all down weekend for Hollywood, which saw the blockbuster Gulliver's Travels open Saturday to a weak two-day gross of $7.2 million, and last week's top film, the 3-D sci-fi sequel Tron: Legacy, fall more than 54 percent to $20.1 million on the weekend, and a total of $88.3 million.
