LOS ANGELES — Jack Black’s Po the panda outgunned Adam Sandler’s Zo the hairdresser.
Black’s cartoon comedy “Kung Fu Panda” pulled in $60 million in ticket sales to debut as the weekend’s No. 1 movie — the best opening ever for a nonsequel cartoon flick from DreamWorks. Sandler’s salon romp “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan” opened in second place with $40 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.
The previous weekend’s leader, the Warner Bros. chick flick “Sex and the City,” slipped to fourth with $21.3 million.
Paramount’s “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” was No. 3 with $22.8 million, raising its three-week domestic total to $253 million. The Associated Press
