Memorial Day Weekend Box Office

The four-day weekend numbers are in and Hedge is credited with $35.3 million, an 8% drop from the opening (3-day) weekend . . . X-Men crushed everything with a $122.8 million opening, though it's numbers got worse each day from Friday through Monday. Da Vinci Code dropped 45% from it's opening weekend, to $42.4 million this lap (for a $144.9 million total). Hedge is now up to $84.4 million and looks headed for a domestic cume of $140-150 million.
