34 THINGS You Miss About Mixtapes.

WEEKEND BOX OFFICE:The Conjuring tops the chart with 41.5 million, more than twice its production budget. It also opened bigger than The Purge, and is more likely to have legs.Despicable Me 2 places with another 25 million bucks; its 276 million total eclipses the end total of the original. Turbo shows with 21.5 million (and 31.2 since opening Wednesday); against a 135 million production budget (and significant marketoing costs) this is a disappointment (Consider the Croods opened well over 40 million). Grown Ups 2 drops to No.4 with 20 million; this has almost recouped its 80 million budget. Red 2 rounds out the Top 5 with 18.5 million against an 84 million budget; that's less than the original's 2010 debut.  But the real OUCH this week is the seventh-place debut of R.I.P.D., at 12.8 million against a 130 million budget (that's really likely closer to 155 million). And Ryan Reynolds thought Green Lantern bombed? He's in this one and the voice of Turbo. But R.I.P.D. is such a bomb that folks will likley overlook Pacific Rim's disappointing 57 percent slide in only its second weekend.

SYRIA: The deputy director of the US Defense Intelligence Agency predicted that the Syrian conflict could continue for years.
