Hurricane Season debuts at number two on the chart.  The tale of a New Orleans high school basketball team dealing with the aftermath of Katrina stars Forest Whitaker, Taraji P. Henson, Courtney B. Vance, Isaiah Washington, Bow Wow, and Lil Wayne and was directed by Tim Story (Barbershop, Fantastic Four) and was written by Robert Eisele (The Great Debators).  With that kind of pedigree one might expect an awards season theatrical release, but apparently hard times at the Weinstein Co. took their toll.

Santa Buddies still tops of the sales charts.
