People love it when Ben Stiller plays dumbass, as they apparently love his “Night at the Museum”, which took in another $37 mil in its second week of release, bringing its total to $116 mil. Will Smith is still pursuing “Happyness” with $19 mil in its third week for a total of $96 mil. The chick flick “Dreamgirls”, the pic flick “Charlotte’s Web”, and the old geezer boxing flick “Rocky Balboa” rounds out spots three, four, and five.
