His previous biggest opening? Answer at the end of the post.

V for Vendetta brought in 12 million, dropping the now usual 50 percent. Stay Alive, the video game horror film, grossed 11 million

Failure to Launch keeps plugging away as the only rom-com, female-friendly film out there dropping another 30 percent and bringing in another 10 million to boost it's total to 63 million (twice as much as 16 Blocks has made)

She's the Man also fared well by being the only teen chick-flick out there. It dropped a mere 30 percent, adding 7 million.

Larry the Cable Guy made 7 million. The limited release of Thank You For Smoking boosted 300%, pulling in a cool million despite being in only 54 theaters.

Find Me Guilty, which had a fun trailer, seems like it is just getting dumped. It's dropped almost 70% in its second weekend, making only $500 per theater.

As for the answer to the opening question: The Original Kings of Comedy - 11 million. The biggest opening for a Spike Lee joint was Malcolm X at 9.8 million, followed by He Got Game at 7 mill.
