Bravo, America. Despite the minimal star power of the "Superbad" leads (Michael Cera of "Arrested Development" and Jonah Hill of "Knocked Up"), you made the Judd Apatow-produced, Seth Rogen-scripted comedy No. 1 this weekend with a take of $31.2 million. That’s slightly more than "Knocked Up" made in its first week ($30.7 million) and much more than the week’s No. 2, the completely awful "Rush Hour 3," which earned $21.8 million in its second week of release. Totally tanking was the Nicole Kidman/Daniel Craig thriller "The Invasion," which earned $6 million to place fifth. How hilarious was "Superbad"? Why didn’t anyone want to see Nicole Kidman fight off an army of pod people?
