Lots of records shattered, it's quite impressive. It's even crawling up in the unadjusted chart, #21 at the moment.

That's for all those non-believers claiming it's making tons of money just because tickets are more expensive nowadays.

It's still very far from the #1 spot.

I don't think anyone is expecting it to become #1 all time adjusted. This will be it's first run after all. Even the first Star Wars didn't get to be #2 on the list from one theatrical run alone. However it's going to be going higher on the list than all but a very select few movies and to be #21 after only 3 weeks is amazing. The question now will be how long it can keep it up. While it obviously won't be like many of the movies on the list that ran for years in their first runs, or even Titanic that was #1 for 15 weeks streight. It's also not just going to completely fizzle out like many movies these days do after huge opening weekends.

It can however many re-releases, that won't matter since re-releases don't make a lot of money (unless they re-release in in 20 years' time as a wide release but even then...).
