The lion's share of box office dollars went to director Roland Emmerich's 10,000 B.C. which earned an estimated $35 million. This same weekend last year saw the outrageous success of 300, but while 10,000 B.C.'s opening comes nowhere near the debut weekend of that blockbuster, it still fulfilled studio expectations, Variety reports.

Despite earning the top spot at the box office, the predictable laughs in Will Ferrell's Semi-Pro only earned $15.3 million over the weekend. This is considered a disappointing sum, especially compared to opening weekends of other Ferrell films like Talladega Nights and Blades of Glory. Variety reports that this underwhelming performance by the basketball comedy may have been due to mediocre reviews and an R-rating.

- Lindsay Lohan and her movie I Know Who Killed Me set a new record at the Razzies, walking away with eight awards. Lindsay even won two Worst Actress trophies because she played a character suffering from a split personality disorder. At least she didn't go empty-handed over the weekend!

Here's what I liked about Vantage Point: It's a gradually unfolding thriller-mystery with elements of an action movie thrown in. Here's what I don't like about Vantage Point: While it benefits from being both thriller-mystery and action flick, it also falls into the same traps as many other movies in these genres. In trying to keep our attention, the film employs this tactic of repeatedly winding back the clock to show what's happening in every character's story in a certain time span.

After hitting up a few cities abroad, the boys of Vantage Point were back stateside at the New York premiere last night. The boys look cute all suited up, although they seem a little bit tired of being interviewed on the red carpet — check out the video after the jump. The movie hits theaters tomorrow, but we'll wait for Buzz's full review before running out to buy tickets.
