Inception drops to second behind the Other Guys

Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg were finally enough to take down Inception, after three weeks at the top. The Other Guys came in a bit above expected with $35.6 million. It's got to be a bit of a sigh of relief after the last movie Ferrell did, Land of the Lost, hit only $19 million, and was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

Inception continues to do really well, dropping a measly 34% to come in at $18.6 million, giving it a total $228 million, which the studios have to be happy about, considering the $100 million budget. Hopefully, this will continue to be a sign to Hollywood, encouraging more originality.

The rest of the bunch did pretty bad, with Salt, Dinner for Schmucks and Step up 3 stinking up the joint.
