The "Toy Story 3" gang and Adam Sandler are finding plenty of playmates at movie theaters.
"Toy Story 3" remained the No. 1 film with $59 million in its second weekend, raising the domestic total to $226.6 million for the Pixar Animation Studios film, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Pixar is a unit of Walt Disney Co.
Mr. Sandler's "Grown Ups" debuted at No. 2 with $41 million.
Released by Sony Corp.'s Sony Pictures, the comedy co-starring Kevin James, Chris Rock, David Spade and Rob Schneider did well despite a thrashing from critics.
Tom Cruise's thriller "Knight and Day," however, fizzled at No. 3 with $20.5 million. It was the worst result for a Cruise action flick in 20 years.
