It may come up short of the $31 million Miley Cyrus’ 3-D movie bowed to, but Jonas Brothers: 3-D Concert Experience did come out on top of Friday’s estimates with a $4.8 million opening, on tap for a $20 million weekend. That was just enough to unseat last weekend’s top dog, Madea Goes to Jail ($4.6 million), which will likely top $60 million after just its second week. Friday’s third-place spot went to Slumdog Millionaire ($3.2 million), on pace for a nice post-Oscar bump thanks in part to Fox Searchlight adding 700 runs this frame. And fourth-place Taken ($2.85 million) is set to break $100 million after just four weeks in release.
1. Jonas Brothers: 3-D Concert Experience — $4.8 million
2. Madea Goes To Jail — $4.6 million
3. Slumdog Millionaire –$3.2 million
4. Taken — $2.9 million
5. He’s Just Not That Into You — $1.9 million
6. Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun Li — $1.7 million
7. Confessions Of A Shopaholic — $1.4 million
8. Paul Blart: Mall Cop — $1.3 million
9. Fired Up — $1.3 million
10. Coraline 3-D — $1.1 million

I’m glad the Jonas Bros. 3D is tanking. What a joke to the film industry and the business. The only reason it has made this much is because theatres must charge between $15 and $18 a ticket. Disney is very greedy.
In another article on the Jonas brothers they talk about screaming little girls after the brothers made a surprise appearance at the debut of their 3-D movie and all sorts of silly tidbits. Personally all this hype is a breath of fresh air. It shows kids and parents and the way America used to always be and no political mentions anywhere in the article. Kudos to the Jonas brothers. Keep your American spirit and don’t fall to the ways of where America is going today. Be the way it used to be. Make people laugh and enjoy your abilities. Make us remember and desire the way it used to be. FUN!!
This might be the worst weekend in US cinema history. If only they could re-release Beverly Hill Chihuahua then we’d have the trifecta.
Too bad for Coraline. All of the 3D theaters are now taken thnaks to the Jonas Bros.
MILEY still RULES!!!!!!!!!!
OMGOSH!
besst movie I have ever seen!
I wass screaming so looud! I lost my voice but itt was worth it!
I love you JB, keep inspiring all your fans!(:<3
the Jonas brothers are just horrible, and disgrace to music. Like many other main stream bands in this century and the middle and late 90′s.
the Jonas brothers are just like Sting and the Police I get them confused all the time HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHa Disney was once the standard now it is a joke.
All you beggars who can’t afford to go and see a 3D movie should just stick your heads up your ass for entertainment…Miley rules!
MILEY KICKED YALLS BUTTS !!!!
Sorry the only reason it got 13 million in one weekend is because of lil girls !!! Sorry I like some of their songs but THE JONAS FANS THINK THEIR ALL THAT !!!
The Jonas brothers was MUCH better than the miley movie. MUCH better. I as a parent was drug along and thought I’d despise it – I quite enjoyed it! Surprise!
