Unfortunatly the nearest IMAX to me is an hour away. But I do have a digital theater and that's pretty good quality. This movie looks like it will be badass.

Someones having a big payday. Records broken.

1 - LARGEST NUMBER OF OPENING THEATRES WITH 4,366 (MORE THAN THE 4,362 DEBUT THEATRES OF PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: AT WORLD'S END IN 2007).

2 - BIGGEST MIDNIGHT PREVIEW GROSS WITH $18.489 MILLION IN 3,040 THEATRES (BEATS STAR WARS EPISODE III: REVENGE OF THE SITH AND ITS $16.9 MILLION IN 2,915 THEATRES IN 2005).

3 - BIGGEST IMAX MIDNIGHT PREVIEWS SET AN NEW RECORD WITH $640,000 (INCLUDED IN THE $18.489 MILLION PREVIEW NUMBER).

4 - BIGGEST SINGLE-DAY GROSS IN BOX-OFFICE HISTORY WITH $67.850 MILLION (BESTS THE $59,841,919 SET BY SPIDER-MAN 3 IN 2007).

5 - BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND GROSS IN BOX OFFICE HISTORY WITH $155.340 MILLION (BESTS THE $151,116 MILLION SET BY SPIDER-MAN 3 IN 2007).

6 - BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND GROSS FOR AN IMAX RELEASE IN BOX OFFICE HISTORY WITH $6,214,061 MILLION IN 94 THEATRES WITH $66,107 PER THEATRE. (BESTS THE $4.7 MILLION SET BY SPIDER-MAN 3 IN 2007.) IMAX SHOWING AT FULL CAPACITY $1.9 MILLION ON SATURDAY ALONE.

7 - BIGGEST OPENING WEEKEND OF 2008 WITH $151.340 (BEATS INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL'S $101.137 MILLION FROM MAY 23-25, 2008)

Ten bucks says the fanboy craze runs outta fuel in about a week or so.

I'm sure its a good movie, but its just Batman to me. I don't get all the hype for it.

And if/when the fanboy craze dies out, they still broke/set all those records, so they win.

Most of those other movies that this movie smashed got mixed reviews.
Ah...the movie going public.

Was Iron Man any good? It's supposed to be equal as a comic book movie.

Yea,.. Absolutely they did,.. Like Godfather,... that got all kinds of mixed reviews,... oh, wait, NO.

Cas, the numbers you show are an 'all time high'. They blow away 'All that has gone before it', not just what was playing that weekend.

I am a batman fan, but no, I would never have figgered a response like this. The only thing that could have done it was a cast member died before release.

I'm not too impressed with all the stories about it being a record weekend in terms of money. It seems that every year it gets more expensive to go the the movies, so you'd expect records to be broken every few years. Records associated with number of people attending are more meaningful, IMO.
