cleolinda"Pirates" sequel sets new record at box office:
"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" set a new record for the highest opening in box office history on Sunday, smashing the four-year-old record held by "Spider-Man," said distributor Walt Disney Co.
The widely hyped family adventure sequel, marking the return of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, sold an estimated $132 million worth of tickets in its first three days of release across North America, easily surpassing industry expectations of an opening in the $100 million range.
The old three-day mark of $115 million was set by "Spider-Man" in May 2002.
More on my own adventures shortly.

Date: 2006-07-10 03:29 am (UTC)and I know I read a box office prediction in Entertainment Weekly a few months back that set its total domestic take at $200 million.
Perhaps that prediction was made by a certain Lisa Schwarzbaum?
