Not one, but two films overtook "The Hunger Games" to claim the number one and two spots at theaters this weekend. 

"Think Like A Man," based on the book by Steve Harvey, brought in more than $30 million this weekend. As of Friday, the film was projected to make upwards of $20 million.

And women love Zac Efron. Fact.

Nicolas Sparks' romance "The Lucky One," performed well above expectations this weekend.

Disney's documentary "Chimpanzee" gains a cool $10 million—nearly as much as "John Carter" brought in during week two ($13.5 million).

"Marley," the documentary on Bob Marley that opened in theaters and on Facebook simultaneously, earned $260,000.

During week two, Guy Pearce's thriller "Lockout" has earned only $11 million total, slightly more than half its $20 million budget. The film, along with  "Wrath of the Titans" and "The Lorax" finally fall out of the top 10. 

10. "Mirror Mirror" rounds up the top ten this week with $4.1 million this weekend. The film is faring much better overseas, earning a total of $64 million compared to $55 domestically.



9. Six weeks at theaters and "21 Jump Street" still manages to rake in $4.6 million at the box office. This brings the film's domestic gross to $127 million. Worldwide, the film has earned $166 million.



8. "Titanic 3D" earns another $5 million this weekend bringing the film's total gross to $52.8 million. Guess it was worth the $18 million budget this time around.
