06.02.08: 'Sex And The City' Storms Box Office, Bryce Dallas Howard Battles The Terminator

Sex And The City chalked up the best opening weekend ever for an R-rated movie, taking an estimated $55.7 million and elbowing Indiana Jones and his Crystal Skulls into second place.

Will Hollywood actually start changing its tune in light of Sex’s triumphant box-office takeover? Indy 4 grabbed another $46 million in its second weekend to bump its haul up to $216.9 million while horror film The Strangers made a respectable $20.7 million in its debut to settle in at No. 3.
