Posted at 11:58 am in Movies

According to estimates from Box Office Mojo, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest (the sequel to 2003′s $305.4 million blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl) has broken the opening day and highest-grossing day box office records of 2005′s Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith ($50 million), earning an estimated $55.5 million on its first Friday. Weekend estimates as of mid-Sunday are around $132 million. The way things are going for it, it’s almost guaranteed to break Spider-Man‘s three-day opening weekend record of $114.84 million from 2002. #

I will probably be seeing the movie the weekend after I get my Blingo movie ticket from June 18 in the mail.

Update: Weekend total has been adjusted to a whopping $135.6 Million. (!)

Pirates love the monies!
