September started off on the weak side, but this is the beginning of the fall movie season and summer blockbusters are behind us. Riddick took the top spot with $18.6 million which is not a big take, though it will end up making money since Diesel funded the movie himself with the help of financial backers. It only cost $40 million to make and Universal is on the hook for marketing so we may still get another Riddick movie when all is said and done.
