Despite this success, its take is still roughly $20 million less than expected as many moviegoers stayed home after the shooting (I presume out of either fear or respect, neither of which make a ton of sense to me, but to each their own).
Internationally the film brought in $88 million from 17 markets for a worldwide total of $249 after only 3 days. The Dark Knight Rises will likely hold the #1 spot for a while domestically with little up-coming competition and internationally as it expands into more countries.
Ice Age: Continental Drift (review coming soon!) melted to 2nd place, earning $20.4 million, bringing its domestic total to $88.8 million and its worldwide total to $529.3 million. Impressive, but it is still not as successful as the other Ice Age films. Similar to the Spider-Man comparison last week, here’s a look at how Ice Age 4 compares to its predecessors now that it’s been out for 2 weekends:
