 Will Smith

Not since 2001′s Ali has Will Smith not had a movie open to at least $20 million.  This past weekend, the drama Seven Pounds ($16) came in second to Jim Carrey‘s Yes Man‘s ($18.1) dissapointing weekend tally.  Some blame poor reviews and scaled-back marketing to emphasize the film’s central mystery.

But never fear, Big Willie Style always has a trick up his sleeve. It’s called Summertime, although according to his IMDB page, there is othing lined up for this summer as of yet.  Hmmmmm????

Here are the weekends final box office totals.

1 – Yes Man (Warner Bros.) – $18.16 ($5,288) – $18.16
2 – Seven Pounds (Sony) – $16.00 ($5,801) – $16.00
3 – The Tale of Despereaux (Universal) – $10.51 ($3,385) – $10.51
4 – The Day the Earth Stood Still (Fox) – $10.15 ($2,851) – $48.63
5 – Four Christmases (Sony) – $7.75 ($2,203) – $100.15
6 – Twilight (Summit) – $5.23 ($1,748) – $158.46
7 – Bolt (Disney) – $4.26 ($1,434) – $95.01
8 – Slumdog Millionaire (Fox Searchlight) – $3.15 ($5,348) – $12.13
9 – Australia (Fox) – $2.33 ($1,051) – $41.95
