LOS ANGELES - AUDIENCES flocked to theatres to see tropical bird comedy Rio, knocking fellow kid-flick Hop off its perch to score the best debut weekend of the year, industry data showed on Sunday.

The 3-D cartoon, about pet macaw Blu - voiced by Social Network star Jesse Eisenberg - who bolts from chilly climes to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro with the bird of his dreams, raked in a cool US$40 million (S$49.7 million) in the Friday-to-Sunday period, according to box office tracker Exhibitor Relations.
