WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Riddick tops the chart with 18.7 million, a bit lower than expected, particularly as it was the sole wide release in a traditionally slow weekend. It's good enough against a 38 million budget that we may see another in this series.  The Butler places with 8.9 million on a 40 percent drop that likely was expected after a long weekend.  Instructions Not Included shows with 8.1 million (against a reported 5 million budget), moving up a notch this weekend in a show of good release timing and shrewd targeting of the Hispanic demo.  We're The Millers takes the fourth slot with another 7.9 million and roughly 164 million worldwide against a 37 million production budget.  Planes clings to the bottom of the Top 5 with 4.3 million and 79.3 million domestic (and another 40 mill overseas) against a 50 million straight-to-video budget.  Below the fold, Woody Allen's Blue Jasmine surpasses Vicky Cristy Barcelona and Match Point in total box office.  Sadly, The World's End drops to No. 10, though worlwide it has taken in about 40 million on a 20 million budget.
