Box office numbers dropped to 17 year lows this year on Memorial Day weekend. Overall revenues for the top-50 films during the four-day holiday weekend came in at $192 million, the lowest since 2001. Factoring in today’s higher admission prices, about 24.2 million tickets were sold, the least since a 22.5 million head count in 1993, according to box-office tracker Hollywood.com.

Shrek stayed on top again with $57 Million of course because Shrek rules. Even without any acne cream he is still the greatest animation movie of the last 20 years IMO. Not sure about this one, but the first was amazing.
