There won’t be any last minute defeat this week.  “How to Train Your Dragon” was the clear winner at the box-office this weekend.

The animated, -3-D movie took in $15 million on a relatively slow weekend at the movies.  That was good enough for first place.

In second was the new romantic comedy, “The Back-Up” plan with $12.3 million.   In third was another romantic comedy, “Date Night” which took in $10.3 million.

Unfortunately, “The Losers” proved to be an apt title for the film with the movie opening in fourth place with $9.6 million.

And in fifth was “Kick Ass” which saw a significant drop off in audience and took in $9.5 million.
