Early morning estimates show that Jurassic World has done what many thought to be impossible, it beat The Avengers’ $207.4 million dollar box office weekend from 2012. Early indications put Jurassic World at $209 million dollars for the weekend coming in much higher than the $204.5 million dollar projection on Sunday. While other analysts have it just slightly lower than the $209 million dollars, but all agree that it has bested The Avengers for the crown. Couple the domestic number with the $307 million dollar international opening and Jurassic World has the highest global opening weekend in history making It the first time a film has ever grossed more than $500 million in one weekend.
What a year Universal is having! The studio now holds 4 of the top 5 opening weekends for 2015 with Furious 7, Pitch Perfect 2, and Fifty Shades of Grey all taking top honors.
