So Star Wars had a pretty good weekend.<br /><br />You know, because it brought in around 220 million bucks at the North American box office.<br /><br />But come on – are you even surprised?<br /><br />It’s the second biggest opening of all time, behind its predecessor The Force Awakens. <br /><br />The film is also only the fourth film in history to open above the $200 million mark, so that alone is a pretty big notch in the belt.<br /><br />But here’s something else. Disney said that with its international ticket sales also, its three-day weekend take was somewhere in the neighborhood of $450 million.<br /><br />Not only does that put it in the record books, but brightens what has been a pretty disappointing year for Hollywood.<br /><br />And just in case you were wondering – Ferdinand came in second place.<br /><br />A very, very, veeerrrrry distant second place.<br />
