Well its the second best midnight opening ever if the numbers form box office mojo are right they have it at $30,640,000. The movie at the top of the list had terrible legs domestically it ended up making $381,011,219 but should have easily made over $400 million. It did great overseas though with $947 million its the third highest grossing movie overseas.
