Fantastic FourThe new adventure fanatsy, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, tops box office results taking in $58.1 million over opening weekend. The sequel to the “Fantastic Four” outperformed its predecessor, said Chris Aronson, senior vice president of distribution for Fox.

Dropping from the top spot to No. 2, with an estimated three-day gross of $19.1 million, was “Ocean’s Thirteen,” released by Time Warner Inc. unit Warner Bros. Pictures.

But the surprise of the weekend came in the form of Universal Pictures’ comedy “Knocked Up ” as it remained a strong No. 3 in this third week of distribution sending Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End down to the 4th spot.

“Knocked Up” will take in an estimated $14.5 million Friday-to-Sunday and has so far grossed $90.5 million, according to Paul Dergarabedian of Media by Numbers.
