It'll be interesting in the next few weeks just how much money it will bring in. The raw $$ figure will be huge, but don't forget that being a 3d film (special) and the fact that cinema tickets are ridiculously expensive* are both going to skew that number.

The adjusted rankings show it's the 26th highest film of all time. Though when I went this weekend it'd have been out for 6 weeks, and we got the last two tickets available for that showing. It was running in a large capacity room too. It's certainly possible that it may climb up a few places, though I think it's stopped showing in the US now.

*£9.20 for an adult, I'm supposed to be "up North"!

bloody hell, £6.80 at our cinema (and we orange wednesdayed so we got in for the princely sum of £3.40 each

(and got to keep the goggles!)

I paid over £10. Am I the biggest mug here or did anyone pay more?

I think it was 12 pound something for the premier seats at the Oxford Odeon and also at the Cardiff Imax.

Mine was just in a standard Vue cinema (still in 3D though of course!). I even tried to pay an extra £1.50 for a deluxe seat but they'd sold out.

Still showing here, too many bums on seats for it to be worth stopping it just yet.

Paid $12 for a matinée viewing, think it was around $18 for the normal.

Nope I'm a bigger mug, close to £15, for IMAX 3D

I think we paid close to 9 quid each when we went.
