X-Men Origins: Wolverine: $87,000,000~
The Dark Knight: $158,411,483
Batman Begins: $48,745,440
Spiderman: $114,844,116
Spiderman 2: $88,156,227
Spiderman 3: $151,116,516
Iron Man: $98,618,668
X-men: $54,471,475
X2: X-Men United: $85,558,731
X-men: The Last Stand: $102,750,665
Hulk: $62,128,420
The Incredible Hulk: $55,414,050
Superman Returns: $52,535,096
Watchmen: $55,214,334
300: $70,885,301

Obviously I didn't include everything, but this just gives you an idea of how the Wolverine film compared with others of the same genre.

In comparison to the other X-Films, X3 had the best performance in it's opening weekend, but it quickly went downhill. I believe that Wolverine has more staying power and will surpass the box office numbers of X-men: The Last Stand.

I think we all agree that The Dark Knight will remain on top for quite some time.

Well wolverine regardless of twisting the source material WAS better than X3. In X3 it was like someone had a grab bag of powers and events that were interchangeable. Im surprised magneto didnt have claws.

Can't help but wonder... But does anyone think Marvel & DC will do cross over movie's down the road like they did with the Comics back in the late 90's....

I mean after they do all these movies...

Just wait in 10-15 years when they reboot everything again to compensate for all the new technology. I will be able to tell me kids, i remember watching this back in the day before you were born!
