the dark night
The current number one box office movie in India is Yeh Jawaani hai Deewani. The movie had the most successful opening weekend so far of any movie in India in 2013.
In 2008, the most successful move was The Dark Knight, starring Christian Bale as Batman and Bruce Wayne. During its opening weekend, the movie made $158,411,483, and grossed a total of $533,345,35 while in theaters.
They want to have the longest "opening weekend" possible, so they stretch it all the way from Wednesday through Sunday night. This inflates the opening weekend ticket sales, and makes the movie look more successful. Another reason is to spread out the rush of people. Serious fans will show up Wednesday and Thursday nights, and be out of the way of the regular weekend movie crowd.
The reign of The Dark Knight is over: The Twilight Saga: New Moon is now officially the movie with the most successful opening day of all time, easily beating Batman's 2008 record. But what about the opening weekend total?The movie's final opening day gross was $72.7 million, which included a second record of $26.3 million for the movie's 12:01 Friday showings alone. The Friday take not only sailed past the Dark Knight's previous record of $67.2 million, but was more than double the original Twilight's debut of $36 million.Right now, estimates for the movie's weekend haul are somewhere in the region of $125-130 million, which will leave one Dark Knight record intact (It made $158.4 million in its first weekend). But that doesn't mean that estimates could be wildly underestimating the appeal of shirtless, hairless supernatural teenagers. After all, the original weekend estimate was around $85 million... I'd say it wass pretty successful ;)
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Since most people only pay to see a film once in the theater, and pre-opening hype is geared to getting people to want to go see a movie as soon as it opens, any given film will do one quarter to one half of its total business over its opening weekend. Few films have "legs", or stay in the theaters for weeks on end, so, for many films, especially summer blockbusters, a strong or weak opening weekend determines whether the film will be a financial success.
The actor's most successful film is Elf.
