Leave It To Jane
The (early) numbers are in, and it looks like Jane Fonda's comeback, Monster-In-Law, won the weekend with a $24 million gross. The film was slaughtered by the critics, but found its audience. (And that audience is different enough from Star Wars' that it may have a decent second weekend.)
While it's not a Focker-sized hit--no one expected that--it did beat Will Ferrell's Kicking And Screaming with a few million to spare. Just like Barbra Streisand (scroll down a bit), Jane was able to return in a film that shows they'll still turn out. Meanwhile, Ferrell shows he can open a film, but still has a way to go before he's the next Adam Sandler.
