Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End hauled in $142.1 million to set a record for best Memorial Day weekend debut, capping a huge month that puts Hollywood on track for record summer business, the Associated Press reported.
But the third movie in the hit franchise fell short of breaking the best three-day opening ever, the $151.1 million haul for Spider-Man 3 three weeks earlier, the wire service reported.
At World's End cruised past last year's record for best four-day Memorial Day opening, $122.9 million for X-Men: The Last Stand.
The $115.1 million that At World's End drew from Friday to Sunday was well behind the $135.6 million premiere last summer of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, the second-biggest debut ever.
Adding in $14 million from Thursday-night previews before its official Friday release, At World's End had taken in $156.1 million domestically. The movie also grossed $245 million internationally since Wednesday, putting its worldwide total at $401 million in a matter of days, the AP reported.
At World's End took over the top spot at the box office from Shrek the Third, which slipped to second place, with $69.1 million for the weekend, raising its domestic total to $219.4 million. Spider-Man 3 came in third place with $18 million, putting its domestic total at $307.6 million.
