Flushed Opens In Third

"Flused Away" opened in third place at the box office this weekend, bringing in $19.1 million dollars.



While a $19 million dollar opening is certainly nothing to laugh at, I have to assume that Dreamworks and Aardman would have liked to see much higher numbers from opening weekend.

Here is how "Flushed" stacks up against some other 3D Animated opening weekends. Be aware that some of these films may have opened on long Holiday weekends.
