Box Office Report - Tron: Legacy strikes gold

It's no surprise Tron: Legacy took the top spot. The Disney sequel had high expectations, and with less than stellar reviews, it could be tough to recoup the $170 million budget. The big surprise comes for the number 2 spot; Yogi Bear. While family movies always do well, this just had "crap" written all over it, and even though executives were hoping for better, in an attempt to make back the $80 million budget, I'm just surprised it did that much.

So, did you see any of these? What do you think about this weekend's successes and failures?
