Jonas Brothers Movie Bombs
The Jonas Brothers may be swoon-worthy but they're no match for Madea! The Disney stars' live concert film came in second at the box office this weekend to Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail.
Failing to live up to the hype, Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience took in $12.7 million in it's debut. Compare that to the $31.1 million that Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert took in (playing on half the number movie screens!) and it's clear that the Jonas movie tanked.
Madea, on the other hand, continued to be a big draw for theatergoers. In its second week, the film grossed $16.5 million.
Meanwhile, Oscar sensation Slumdog Millionaire came in third at the box office with $12.1 million, Taken took fourth place with $9.9 million and He's Just Not That Into You claimed the fifth spot with $5.8 million.

I don't think the JB team is over. It's probably just more and more adults going to there shows than kids.It happens, it's no big deal!!

-- ysbaddaden
well I would have watched it but they didn't show it were i lived. I think the jonas brothers are awsome, and more people would have watched it if it wasn't 3-d, and was in more theaters.
