50 FIRST DATES runs away with another week of box office gold, while films CONFESSIONS OF A TEENAGE DRAMA QUEEN, MIRACLE, and WELCOME TO MOOSEPORT slug it out for tops in the trenches. Other news sees a disappointing first week for EUROTRIP and AGAINST THE ROPES, the continued resurgence of MYSTIC RIVER, and the staying power of RETURN OF THE KING…just in time for the Oscars. 50 FIRST DATES appears to have recaptured Adam Sandler’s rabbit’s foot with moviegoers, grossing an impressive $21 million at the box office in its second week. This brings its tally to $72.3 million, reminding audiences what an irresistable team he and co-star Drew Barrymore were from their previous effort, THE WEDDING SINGER.MIRACLE hung in there with $8 million (bringing it to $50.5 overall), just losing out the second slot to CONFESSIONS OF A TEENAGE DRAMA QUEEN ($9.22) and besting WELCOME TO MOOSEPORT ($7.0), each in their first weeks.EUROTRIP raked in a mediocre $6.6 million its first week, beating out fellow opener AGAINST THE ROPES, which only managed a paltry $3 million. Meanwhile, MYSTIC RIVER continues its climb back to the spotlight finishing seventh in its 20th week in theaters. And RETURN OF THE KING may be almost gone, but is definitely not forgotten with a $2.8 million week that brings its overall numbers to an overwhelming $361.1 million in just 10 weeks.Final numbers are as follows:1. 50 First Dates (21.0m)2. Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (9.2m)3. Miracle (8.0m)4. Welcome to Mooseport (7.0m)5. Eurotrip (6.6m)6. Barbershop (6.3m)7. Mystic River (3.1m)8. Against the Ropes (3.0m)9.
