It sustained a bit of a drop-off in business, as could be expected, but “Superbad” was good enough to hold onto the top spot at the box office over the weekend, taking in another $18 million. There was a trio of newcomers to the top 10, but none could crack the top three, with “Mr. Bean’s Holiday” taking fourth place, just shy of $10 million. That movie, starring Rowan Atkinson as the accident-prone nitwit, has already enjoyed a health overseas box office run, and is very close to the $200 million mark worldwide.
Speaking of worldwide, “Harry Potter” has supplanted “Spider-Man” for the second slot in the world charts, nearing $900 million. It likely will run out of steam before catching the third “Pirates of the Caribbean” sequel, but it’s an impressive accomplishment, nonetheless.
