The 1st weekend of the summer box office festival of summer ended up being a quiet-ish one. ?If you can call earning $48 million underwhelming(for a film that cost $120m to make), than yes, it was a quiet weekend for giant expectations. ?People just hate this Cruise guy, don't they. ?What happened to that interesting trend in his career when he started doing things like Magnolia? ?Who told him to steer clear of decent, small scripts that matter? ?He was good in that flick. ?Great, even. ?Other weekend openers (Hoot, American Haunting) did poorly.

The Numbers
1. "Mission: Impossible III," $48.025 million.
2. "RV," $11.1 million.
3. "An American Haunting," $6.4 million.
4. "Stick It," $5.5 million.
5. "United 93," $5.2 million.
6. "Ice Age: The Meltdown," $4 million.
7. "Silent Hill," $3.9 million.
8. "Scary Movie 4," $3.8 million.
9. (tie). "Akeelah and the Bee," $3.4 million.
9 (tie). "Hoot," $3.4 million.

"Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Exhibitor Relations Co. Inc. Final figures will be released Monday..."
