With all the new movies opening this past weekend, I don’t think anyone was counting on Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs topping the box office for the second week in a row. Never underestimate free food… or Mr. T! The animated film built on critical praise and solid buzz to (ahem) weather a minor 19 percent drop and earn another $24 million. Surrogates and Fame, meanwhile, had rather weak numbers, debuting to just $15 million and $10 million respectively. Steven Soderbergh’s The Informant! and Tyler Perry’s I Can Do Bad All by Myself rounded out the top 5, while Pandorum made just $4.4 million. I’m most surprised that Fame did so poorly… I guess ’80s remakes of dance movies just won’t cut it nowadays.

1. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs — $24.6M
2. Surrogates — $15M
