'Vantage Point' leads box office
New Line's Jack Black comedy "Be Kind Rewind" opened in seventh place with $4.1 million from a barely wide 808 playdates. Lionsgate's Larry the Cable Guy comedy "Witless Protection" bowed out of the top rankings with $2.2 million. And MGM's Robert Downey Jr. starrer "Charlie Bartlett" debuted with just $1.8 million. Also, National Geographic Cinema expanded its "U2 3D" concert film into wide release after a previous limited run, grossing $1 million from 686 venues, up from a previous 40. That shaped a cume of $4.9 million. Industrywide, the weekend's $107 million in collective grosses represented an 8 percent decline when compared with the same frame a year ago, according to Nielsen EDI. That's the third consecutive year-over-year weekly decline. Moviegoers' preoccupation with the Academy Awards telecast caused distributors to pencil in lighter grosses than for a typical winter Sunday, but that was true on the comparable frame from 2007.
