Once again my movie pick has dominated the box office and it's no big surprise that the latest chapter of the Pirates franchise has grossed a ton of money.  With the money counted, it made around $90 million here in the states, but set an over seas record with all the money it made.

Previously Harry Potter: And The Half Blood Prince had held the record for an over seas opening with $236 million.  Pirates out did it with it's take of $256 million, giving them a world wide total of about $346 million.  Pretty impressive.

The comedy Bridesmaids remains in the number 2 spot for the second week in a row taking in $21 million while Thor drops into third place making another $15 million to make it's total earnings around $146 million here in the states.
