LOS ANGELES, Nov. 16 (UPI) -- Bond, James Bond, is No. 1 in U.S. movie theaters again with "Quantum of Solace" opening to huge audiences, Box Office Mojo said Sunday.

"Quantum of Solace," starring Daniel Craig in the latest incarnation of British secret agent 007, raked in an estimated $70.4 million in its opening weekend, knocking the animated "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" to No. 2 despite pulling in $36.13 million for a two-week total of $118.02 million.

Next up were "Role Models" at $11.71 million; "High School Musical 3: Senior Year," $5.88 million; and "Changeling," $4.25 million.

Filling out the Top 10 were "Zack and Miri Make a Porno," $3.2 million; "Soul Men," $2.43 million; "The Secret Life of Bees," $2.4 million; "Saw V," $1.79 million; and "The Haunting of Molly Hartley," $1.65 million."
