In a tight box office finish, How to Train Your Dragon kicked some ass sending the super hyped Kick Ass into second place and watching the new remake of Death of a Funeral land in 4th place behind a strong hold for the hilarious Date Night. Kick Ass could still rally in the weeks ahead due to word of mouth (much like Dragon did), and its small production cost will help it break even as well.
