Spiraling down ...

Elysium takes first in the battle of 4 movies, but makes under $30 million for the weekend.  We're the Millers came in second followed by Planes and Percy Jackson.  August typically brings low box office receipts and this year is no different.  Not even Pixar with a Cars spinoff could break the spell.  Ned's surging to the top might have come to an end with Planes low opening of $22 million.   Now he needs a big showing from Kick-Ass 2 this weekend to claim the title.

Besides Kick-Ass 2, also opening this weekend is a movie about Steve Jobs, corporate espionage, and the White House butler.  Can Kick Ass well kick ass?  Will Apple come up with the cool product once again?  Can corporate espionage steal it?  Well they all get served by the butler?  Okay I will stop there.
