It's a good day to be a dinosaur. Yesterday we reported that Jurassic World had taken a bite out of its competition and raked in a massive $204.6 million on its first weekend of release stateside, putting it ahead of Marvel's Avengers: Age Of Ultron and setting a record as the second biggest domestic opening in history behind The Avengers, which took in $207.4M back in May 2012.
Well, it's just surpassed it.
The latest numbers indicate that the Colin Trevorrow directed sequel raked in a whopping $209 million (though some are putting it slightly lower) over Friday, Saturday and Sunday, giving it the biggest domestic opening weekend of all time. Add to that the over $307.2M accumulated overseas, and Jurassic World has smashed another record as the only movie in history to cross $500 million in one weekend. If the film continues that box office dominance, it'll be hard to imagine anything taking its crown any time soon... but then, Star Wars: The Force Awakens will be with us in December!
Do you think Jurassic World deserves this type of success? Sound off below.
