Pirates Gets Knocked Around a Bit

The sailing wasn't quite as smooth for "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" this weekend, but the booty was still plentiful.

Despite seeing a 62.4 percent drop from its dominant $114.7 million opening over Memorial Day weekend (not including Monday), the swashbuckling sequel's $43.2 million was enough to keep it in first place and bring its two-week total to $216.5 million, despite what turned out to be stiff competition from Judd Apatow's latest offering to the cerebral gross-out genre, according to figures compiled by Exhibitor Relations.

Apparently being impregnated by Seth Rogen isn't as disturbing a concept as "Knocked Up's" movie posters would have you believe, with moviegoers forking over $29.3 million to get in on the unplanned-pregnancy shenanigans, giving the well-received R-rated comedy a solid second-place finish at the box office.
