Weekend Box Office: 5/7-5/9/10

Iron Man 2 kicked off the start of the summer movie season with a huge bang, taking the wind out of everything else. Romantic comedies and kids' films were relatively spared. The other major new release of the week - a shameless Mother's Day ploy - flopped. Most mothers would rather spend the weekend with their own babies.
