Man of Steel Weekend #3...

All of the following data comes from Box Office Mojo:

As of this morning, MoS has made an estimated $20.8 million this past weekend.

Note: the numbers are estimates at this point because the foreign market is still open, but for now, the Domestic Gross for Man of Steel is over $248.6 million and the Foreign Gross is $271.7 million - making the grand (estimated) total through this weekend over $520.3 million.

It's interesting, though not uncommon, that the Foreign Gross is higher than the Domestic because so many other countries are watching American films.

(Iron Man 3 by the way has now crossed the $1 billion mark - though I'm not sure exactly when - thanks in no small part to China, South Korea, the U.K., Mexico, Brazil and France.)

But what surprises me is that of all the other countries going to see MoS, the highest profits haven't come from China ($25.9 million) as one might expect...but the U.K., with over $33.2 million.

I wonder if this has anything to do with Henry Cavill...

Makes you wonder if Australia will step up later this month.
