Weekend Box Office -- Final Figures

Martin Scorsese did enjoy the biggest weekend of his career with "The Departed." And Popsurfing was right again to second-guess Box Office Prophets and predict the comedy "Employee of the Month" would do much better than $3 mil thanks to the massive young fanbase for Dane Cook. The Top 10 per BOP:

1. The Departed -- $27 million total
2. Texas Chainsaw massacre: The Beginning -- $19.1 mil total
3. Open Season -- $16 mil ($44.1 mil total)
4. Employee of the Month -- $11.8 mil total
5. The Guardian -- $9.6 mil ($32.5 mil total)
6. Jackass Number Two -- $6.4 mil ($62.7 mil total)
7. School For Scoundrels -- $3.4 mil ($14 mil total)
8. Gridiron Gang -- $2.3 mil ($36.6 mil total)
9. Jet Li's Fearless -- $2.2 mil ($21.7 mil total)
10. The Illusionist -- $1.8 mil ($34.1 mil total)
