Shrek The Third knocked Jason Bourne out of the top spot this weekend, taking $17.8m over the three-day period after expanding in Italy and Scandinavia. The green ogre shot up a whopping 2,086% after generating $8m in its opening weekend in Italy, the best opening for an animated film ever in the territory. But The Bourne Ultimatum is still going strong: it fell by a mere 3%, taking $14.6m in its fourth weekend after expanding in six additional territories. Rom-com No Reservations was up 78% after opening in the UK, Russia and South Korea. And Japanese animation Evangelion 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone made the top 20 this weekend, with a $2.4m take in its home territory. German comedy Kein Bund Furs Leben and Korea's The Worst Guy Ever both fared well locally, each taking $1.5m over the weekend. 1408, 28 Weeks Later, Death Proof and Premonition all re-entered the chart.
