This was expected because everybody I knew and their moms and kids went to go see Maleficent. I thought it would be way more than $70 million though.
I actually thought it would be about $65. Due to the overseas success, it will recoup it’s $200 million budget.
Isn’t Edge of Tomorrow coming out next week?
EDIT – yes, IMDB failed me and didn’t have it listed in opening next week. Edge of Tomorrow will be the number one movie.
