And it is a HUGE opening weekend for
Iron Man! The movie had an incredible debut at #1 kicking off nicely for the Summer Movie Season.
Iron Man grossed 100 million dollars this past weekend. The Marvel Comics adaptation is the second-highest grossing opening weekend ever for a non-sequel movie just behind
Spider-Man (2002) and slightly ahead of
X2: Xmen United (2003). Great numbers for the film, which was made on a $140 million budget. Also opening nationwide was
Made of Honor. The romantic comedy came in at #2 and grossed in a low $15 million dollars, this could be due to the fact that not only
Iron Man was released the same weekend, but the movie lacks a lead female role opposite
Patrick Dempsey. To read the full Box Office list,
