FERRELL SKATES TO THE TOP

WILL FERRELL's new comedy BLADES OF GLORY has helped cement the funnyman's position as one of Hollywood's biggest draws after it skated to number one with a first-weekend take of $33 million (GBP17 million).

The figure skating spoof, which also stars JON HEDER, has toppled TMNT from the top spot and also outpaced Disney's new animated movie MEET THE ROBINSONS, which debuted at number two with a still-impressive $25.1 million (GBP12.9 million).

Smash-hit war epic 300 has slipped a spot to number three on the new box office chart, but takes its four-week tally to $180 million (GBP92.3 million). TMNT falls to four, while JOHN TRAVOLTA's biker film WILD HOGS rounds out the new top five.
