On a box office weekend of far-ranging movies and ticket prices, the 3-D Clash of the Titans scooped up the most money, an estimated $61.4 million, while Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too? ruled as the top grosser among 2-D-only films, with a huge $30.2 million.

The Last Song, Miley Cyrus' first major venture without Hannah Montana, sounded about right: a fourth-place debut, a $16.2 million Friday-Sunday.

More results:

• Clash of the Titans is the third straight 3-D movie to open No. 1. In fact, in 14 weekends so far this year, a 3-D movie has been on top 10 times. The trend is a matter of appeal—and math. 3-D ticket prices are, on average, $4 higher than 2-D ones. As your wallet could have told you.

• Titans actually played in slightly more 2-D theaters than 3-D ones, but it grossed slightly more at 3-D venues than 2-D ones, box office tracker Exhibitor Relations said.

• Overall, Titans' debut was big, but not titanic. 300, from the same studio, and sporting the same man-skirts but without the 3-D advantage, bowed with more than $70 million three years ago.

• Why Did I Get Married Too? is Perry's second-biggest opener, and his biggest opener without the help of Madea.

• Since opening Wednesday, The Last Song has grossed $25.6 million. All told, that's nowhere near Dear John, to name another Nicholas Sparks-spawned romantic drama, but it's already bigger than Robert Pattinson's Remember Me, to name another star U-turn. Assessed Exhibitor Relations' Jeff Bock in an email: "I'd say that Miley Cyrus' debut—sans her Disney doppelgänger—is right on target as her formidable tween audience follows her into teenage-dom."

• In its second weekend, How to Train Your Dragon ($29.2 million; $92.3 million overall) held well, even as it lost 3-D screens and its No. 1 spot to Clash of the Titans.

• Despite its not-hot start, Hot Tub Time Machine ($8 million; $27.8 million overall) hung in there with a better-than-average second weekend.

• Matt Damon's $100 million or so Green Zone ($1.2 million) is out of the top 10 after three weekends, and, whoops, only $33.1 million. (Worldwide, the film has grossed a still-not-good $61.2 million, per Box Office Mojo.)

• In its fifth weekend, Johnny Depp's Alice in Wonderland ($8.3 million) broke the $300 million mark.

Here's a rundown of the weekend's top-grossing films Friday-Sunday, per estimates compiled by Exhibitor Relations:

Clash of the Titans, $61.4 million
Why Did I Get Married Too?, $30.2 million
How to Train Your Dragon, $29.2 million
The Last Song, $16.2 million
Alice in Wonderland, $8.3 million
Hot Tub Time Machine, $8 million
The Bounty Hunter, $6.2 million
Diary of a Wimpy Kid, $5.5 million
She's Out of My League, $1.5 million
Shutter Island, $1.46 million
