7th week. “Escape from Planet Earth” has not quite stalled, but its total this week is $54,003,894, less than $1,000,000 more than last week’s $53,354,899 Meanwhile, “The Croods” stands at $93,893,394, so far ahead of “Escape from Planet Earth” that it isn’t even funny. It's nice that "Escape from Planet Earth" has so confounded the critics who predicted that it would never top the $10,000,000 mark, much less earn its estimated $40,000,000 production costs back.
