Ok, so We’re the Millers didn’t finish on top, but I don’t want to post another picture of Forest Whitaker on here and damn if I am going to have One Direction up there.

So Labor Day is summer’s last hoorah and people took advantage of the holiday weekend to give every movie a boost. Lee Daniels’ The Butler took first again for the third week in a close race with the One Direction movie, This is Us.

The weekend’s other big release, Getaway, was lost in the shuffle. It had to have been hard to market a kidnapped wife/racing movie starring Ethan Hawke and Selena Gomez. Yeah, it is even hard to type.

1. The Butler- $20.0 million/ $79.2 million

2. One Direction- $18.0/ $18.0

3. We’re the Millers- $15.9/ $112.8

4. Planes- $10.6/ $73.7

5. Instructions Not Included- $10.0/ $10.0

6. Elysium- $8.3/ $80.4

7. The Mortal Instruments- $6.8/ $24.2

8. Percy Jackson- $6.0/ $56.5

9. Getaway- $5.5/ $5.5

10. Blue Jasmine- $5.3/ $21.7
