The ComingSoon.net Box Office Report has been updated with studio estimates for the weekend. Be sure to check back on Monday for final figures based on actual box office.

Paramount Pictures and Marvel Studios' Iron Man exceeded all expectations, earning a massive $100.75 million during its opening weekend domestically from 4,105 theaters and $104.2 million since debuting Thursday night, averaging $24,543 per site. Internationally, the film has also earned an incredible $96.7 million in 57 countries since it began opening Wednesday, putting its worldwide total at $201 million after just five days! The comic book adaptation, directed by Jon Favreau and starring Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Terrence Howard and Jeff Bridges, was the 10th biggest opening of all-time and the fourth biggest for a superhero movie. Among nonsequels, it came in behind only the first Spider-Man, which opened with $114.8 million. As far as May openings, Iron Man came in at #8, just behind X-Men: The Last Stand's $102.8 million when you look at the three-day figure (not counting Thursday night). Financed by Marvel Studios and distributed by Paramount, the movie cost about $150 million to make and $75 million to market.

The one on the left is from the comic, the right is the film version. Stan Winston's studio is working on the suit for the film.

Damn, is the scene after the credits worth watching then? I hate waiting 10 freaking minutes to watch a 5-second clip.

I waited 10 mins just to hear the little radio chatter after cloverfield. Like "WTF THAT'S IT?? I WAITED 10 MINS FOR THAT???".

Personally, if you want to see Samuel L Jackson in an eye patch looking uber cool, YES. If you aren't a comic book fan, YouTube it. But I'm just afraid the cineplex you go to doesn't show, you'd go MOTHERF**----!

What the hell is wrong with Rachel McAdams? This isn't the first time she's rejected big roles. She's like the Heath Ledger (RIP) of Hollywood, picking Indie stuff over these roles. She's way hotter than Mrs. Coldplay. Loved her in Red Eye, Family Stone and Notebook.
