by Shannon Vestal 0

Don't underestimate the power of a talking bear. Seth MacFarlane's comedy Ted came in number one at the box office and broke the record for the biggest opening for a nonsequel R-rated comedy with $54.1 million. Magic Mike also had an impressive first weekend, pulling in $39.2 million for second place. Pixar's animated Brave came in third with $34 million, followed by another new release, Tyler Perry's Madea's Witness Protection, with $26.4 million. Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted rounded out the top five with $11.8 million.
