BOX OFFICE

Pixar has yet another #1 hit.

The Scottish adventure is Pixar’s 13th consecutive first-place opener.

Another animated feature, Madagascar 3, performed well enough in its third weekend to capture the #2 spot with $20.2 million.

Nabbing third place was the new release Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, which earned $16.5 million in its debut.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter opens on June 22, which will be a bit too late for kids hoping to use what they learn from the supernatural thriller on their history exams.

The movie, of course, deals with the 16th President’s “secret life” as a killer of bloodsucking creatures who threatened his America.
