Joseph Smith told the Mormons they would go to hell if they watched movies on Sundays. So a bunch of theaters here actually have plenty of seats for those early Sunday showings.

The Argonaut wrote:Domestic Box-Office Opening Weekend guesses?
The #1 opening weekend of all-time right now is, surprisingly, Jurassic World at $208,806,270. #2 and #3 are Avengers 1 and 2 at $207mil and $191mil respectively. The rest of the top ten are an assortment of Marvel, Harry Potter, Batman, and Hunger Games movies, all breaking $150 million. In 1999, Phantom Menace had amassed over $105 million by the end of its first weekend (it opened on a Wednesday).
I predict this will take the top spot handily, hitting $230 million opening weekend. (I made this number up, I don't even know if it's possible.)
I'd like to see more guesses; I'll keep track!

Simple Torture - $245 million
Argo - $230 million
