LOS ANGELES (AP) – The new number-one movie isn’t a new movie. Ben Affleck’s “Argo” climbs to the top spot — after three weeks in theaters. The story of the rescue of American hostages in Iran in the late 70s takes in nearly $12 and a-half million dollars.

“Hotel Transylvania” is second.

“Cloud Atlas” has a disappointing opening weekend. Tom Hanks and Halle Berry are among the stars. But the movie, with an estimated 100 million dollar budget, only manages a third-place debut.
