LOS ANGELES (AP):

Stars-on-ice Will Ferrell and Jon Heder took the box office gold for the weekend.

Paramount and DreamWorks' Blades of Glory, with Ferrell and Heder playing figure-skating rivals who become the sport's first men's pair, debuted as the No. 1 movie at U.S. and Canadian theatres with US$33 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.

Disney's animated adventure Meet the Robinsons, about the time-travelling journey of a brilliant but lonely orphan, debuted in second place with $25.1 million.

The previous weekend's top movie, the Warner Bros. animated tale TMNT, a revival of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle franchise, slipped to fourth place with US$9.2 million. TMNT raised its 10-day total to US$38.4 million.

After a month-long surge, the overall box office declined. The top 12 movies took in US$115 million, down 13 per cent from the same weekend last year, when Ice Age: The Meltdown opened with US$68 million.
