Box Office: Hulk Sees Big Green

The Incredible Hulk mustered a more-than-credible $54.5 million to top the weekend box office. The "reboot" fell shy of the $62.1 mil that Ang Lee's critically reviled original collected in its own opening weekend, yet is enjoying far better word-of-mouth and as such is expected to best the 2003 film's $132.2 million in sales.
Last week's champ,
Kung Fu Panda, placed second with $34.3 mil.
Rounding out the top five were M. Night's
The Happening (rebounding soundly from
Lady in the Water, with a 30.5 mil debut),
You Don't Mess With the Zohan ($16.4 mil)
and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull ($13.5 mil).
