9/11 drama fails to generate big results...

The new Robin Williams comedy, "RV," debuted #1 at the box office this weekend with $16.4 million.

The much-talked about 9/11 drama, "United 93," debuted at #2 with $11.6 million. The film had the highest per theater average of any in the top 10 with $6,465 per, but the disappointing debut does seem to indicate that many people didn't feel comfortable watching a drama on 9/11.

"Stick It" debuted at #3 with $11.2 million.

"Silent Hill" fell three spots to #4 in its second weekend, earning $9.3 million to bring its cume to $34.2 million.

"Scary Movie 4" fell three spots to #5 with $7.8 million, raising its three week total to $78.1 million.

"The Sentinel" fell three spots to #6 in its second weekend, earning $7.6 million to bring its total to $25.5 million.

"Ice Age: Meltdown" fell three spots to #7 with $7 million, raising its five week total to $177.7 million.

"Akeelah and the Bee" debuted at #8 with $6.2 million.

"The Wild" fell four spots to #9 with $4.7 million, raising its three week total to $28.4 million.

Rounding out the top ten is "The Benchwarmers" which fell four spots on $4.4 million, raising its four week total to $52.7 million.
