"Meet the Fockers," a lowbrow family comedy starring Robert De Niro (news), Ben Stiller and Dustin Hoffman, easily retained the No. 1 position at the New Year holiday box office. It sold about $42.8 million worth of tickets in the three days beginning Friday, setting two records in the process. Its total after 12 days rose to $163.4 million. "Meet the Parents," released in October 2000, ended its run with $166 million. ....
"Meet the Fockers" set two records over the weekend. Its Friday haul of $12.2 million was the best for New Year's Eve, beating "Cast Away's" four-year-old record of $8.5 million. It continued its winning ways the next day with sales of $18 million, surpassing the New Year's Day record of $12.8 million set last year by "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King." Universal estimated "Fockers" accounted for about one-third of weekend box office sales. ....
