$55,500,000

That's how much Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest took in on its opening day on Friday, July 7.

It made that much on a single day. Not the whole weekend, which would be impressive enough. A single day.

The movie with the second highest opening day tally is last year's blockbuster Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith. It made $50,000,000. Apparently, people were more eager to see the return of Jack Sparrow than they were to see the "birth" of Darth Vader.

Update: POTC:DMC had the biggest opening weekend ever. $134 mill.
