Rock Of Ages and That's My Boy Flop, as Expected

This weekend's two openers, star-studded Rock of Ages and Adam Sandler doofus comedy That's My Boy, both struggled to earn even $ 15 million in the box office, the latest in a line of studio flops. Deadline's Nikke Finke chalks Rock of Ages' failure up to the Russell Brand-Tom Cruise likeability problem, while we'd wager Adam Sandler's appeal might be aging out. Still leading the pack this weekend: Madagascar 3, proving once again that lemurs and penguins are a winning combination, and sci-fi thriller Prometheus, whose teensy plot holes are beginning to eat into its ticket sales.
