Your weekend box office:
1. Mama - $28 million, minus all the royalties that had to be paid out to Vicki Lawrence.
2. Zero Dark Thirty - $17.6 million, giving recent Golden Globe winner Jessica Chastain the top two films of the weekend as America catches Chastain Fever, killing many of the non-inoculated young and elderly.

5. Broken City - $9 million. Man, that city was so broken, you guys! As is Schwarzenegger's acting career: his so-called comeback film The Last Stand opened in tenth with just $6.3 million.
