All those paper fans featuring the head of Will Ferrell that were distributed at the Galen Center the past two weekends could not rescue Will Farrell’s new movie, “Semi-Pro” from a disappointing opening. The movie took in $15.3 million, about $10 million less than expected.
“Will Ferrell is always a draw and audiences love him. But this particular weekend is not quite as strong as his earlier efforts,” said box-office guru Paul Dergarabedian, who is a USC graduate like Ferrell.
