WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Puss in Boots repeats atop the chart with 33 million, on a remarkably small 3 percent drop from its debut. That's huge, as it means the puss likely recoups its estimated 130 million production budget in North America, leaving overseas  markets as pure profit.  Only Happy Feet 2 will comete for the family market between now and the lucrative long Thanksgiving weekend.  Tower Heist opens with 25.1 million, making the Ben Stiller-led vehicle look more like Tropic Thunder (think 100 million) than Night at the Museum (think 250 million); this comedy cost 75 million.  A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas debuts at No. 3 with 13.1 million against a 15 million budget.  Paranormal 3 is fourth, dropping 53 percent after Halloween to make 8.5 million; even so, it has a 95.3 million total against a 5 million budget.  In Time rounds out the Top Five, taking in 7.7 million, for a 24.2 million total so far; it will likely recoup its 40 million budget domestic and make a roughly equal amount overseas.
