TImovie.jpgAtlanta rapper Tip “T.I.” Harris’s coming-of-age drama ATL exceeded expectations this weekend, debuting at #3 at the box office. The Chris Robinson-helmed pic made $12.5 million, falling just behind Spike Lee’s Inside Man ($15.7 million) and the animated Ice Age: The Meltdown ($70.5 million). ATL also had a higher per-screen average attendance than Inside Man. This marks the first film for both T.I. and music video director Chris Robinson.

    It’s good 2 c real talent make real $, mane! Not that the rap game ain’t doin it 4 him, cuz that nigga hot! Those of u who ain’t got it need 2 go cop that KING!! I’ve visited ATL several times & will soon be a resident…& all I’ve heard (from people in customer service, etc.) is that T.I. is 1 of the realest people u could ever meet. (Shout out 2 Dave @ Huff Furniture!) That, along w/ things he’s done in the community & w/ Hurricane Katrina Relief Efforts…I mean, I think it all speaks 4 itself! He deserves everything good that’s coming his way! 4 real!
