MGMB - 'Uncharted' likely to lead box office again in calm before 'Batman' storm
A relative quiet weekend for movie releases means the domestic box office winners will stay largely the same, a week before the next superhero-film splash arrives. Adventure film (and videogame adaptation) Uncharted (NYSE:SONY) ruled grosses last weekend with $44 million ($51.3 million counting the President's Day holiday), and it's set to repeat there, with only one smaller-profile film headed for wide release. And the second-best film is set again to be Channing Tatum's Dog (OTC:MGMB), which posted a solid second place a week ago with $14.9 million ($17.4 million for the long weekend). The slow weekend ahead has just one wide release, and it's the horror-comedy starring the band Foo Fighters, Studio 666 (Open Road). And in Oscar qualifiers moving a little wider, Cyrano (OTC:MGMB) spreads out a bit in limited release after a smaller run to qualify for an Academy award. That all means a breather for moviegoers before
