The Expendables 2 blasted its way to the top of the box office this weekend, but Robert Pattinson also had a few thousand reasons to smile. While the Sylvester Stallone-penned action flick earned nearly $30 million and easily out-garnered The Bourne Legacy for the number-one ranking, Pattinson’s Cosmopolis – his first movie since news of the Kristen Stewart affair broke – grossed $72,000 at just three theaters. That gave Cosmopolis the weekend’s biggest per-screen average. So take that, D.B. Sweeney ! Sparkle – which featured Whitney Houston in her final big screen performance – landed in fifth place. But it sported the Top 10’s best per-theater average after The Expendables 2 . Here is a look at that top 10 from Friday and Saturday: The Expendables 2 , $28.8 million The Bourne Legacy , $17 million ParaNorman , $14 million The Campaign , $13.4 million Sparkle , $12 million The Dark Knight Rises , $11.1 million The Odd Life of Timothy Green , $10.9 million Hope Springs , $9.1 million Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days , $3.9 million Total Recall , $3.5 million
