Box Office Monday

Ah how times have changed. Not so long ago if a movie pulled in 70+ million dollars on opening weekend, the studio execs would join hands and skip around the lot together. Now, however, a movie like "Shrek Forever After" can make $71.2 million and be considered a flop. "MacGruber" also came in well below expectations after a huge viral marketing campaign. "Iron Man 2" and "Robin Hood," meanwhile, held strong, though at this point there's no way "Hood" turns a profit anytime soon.

1. "Shrek Forever After" - $71.2 million
2. "Iron Man 2" - $26.6 million ($251.3 million)
3. "Robin Hood" - $18.6 million ($66.1 million)
4. "Letter to Juliet" - $9.1 million ($27.4 million)
5. "Just Wright" - $4.2 million ($14.6 million)
6. "MacGruber" - $4.1 million
7. "Date Night" - $2.8 million ($90.6 million)
8. "A Nightmare on Elm Street" - $2.3 million ($59.9 million)
9. "How to Train Your Dragon" - $1.8 million ($210.9 million)
10. "Kites" - $1.0 million
