Just saw that it passed the $150 million mark just from Thursday-Saturday. If it continues with another $50 million on Sunday it'll easily beat the opening weekend record.

In the paper on Sunday morning it said the total was up to $150 million, so I don't see how they could have included Sunday's take at 4AM Sunday morning unless they were able to use their powers to see into the future.
Anyway, later today or tomorrow we'll know the actual numbers. Hopefully it'll be around the same as the projection.

ROTS has tied Spider-Man 2 for quickest to $200 million. They both did it in 8 days but Spder-Man 2 had 202,120,073 and ROTS 200,442,739. The quickest to $300 million is Shrek 2 in 18 days so it looks like ROTS can beat that.

In my estimation, it'll take about 3 days for the movie to break $300M, the standing record is Shrek 2 at 18 days.

Ain't gonna help... the top three are averaging $3.5M a day this week... at 15 days it's only at $282M.
If the weekend is good (the only new big movie this week is Cinderella Man), it just might tie Shrek 2's record.

$300.7M in 17 days (estimated).
The next goal... $400M by June 30th. That's an average of $3.6M a day.
