BOX OFFICE: X-MEN: DOFP Off To A Great Start From Thursday Night Takings
Bryan Singer's excellent X-Men: Days Of Future Past is expected to earn upwards of $100M over the four-day weekend, and has set the ball rolling with a very impressive $8M from Thursday night showings alone. More past the jump.
X-Men: Days of Future Past opens in North America today, and analysts are now predicting a $100 million haul for Bryan Singer's movie over the four day Memorial Day weekend -- meaning that it could well wind up the most financially (and critically as it currently sits at 94% on RT) successful X-Men film yet. Whether that happens or not, there's no doubt that it's off to a great start as it took in $8.1M in 2,900 theaters last night. Days Of Future Past also opens in 100 countries today, including China and the UK/Ireland. Are you planning on checking it out in theaters this weekend?
