Tim Burton’s Alice In Wonderland has become the biggest 3D opening ever, the best March release ever and the highest grossing movie of 2010 with $41 million on Friday and $45 million on Saturday, and is expected to make $31 million plus today. Thus far, Alice has garnered an estimated (and staggering) $116.3 million weekend box-office debut, and has become Hollywood’s first $100 million-plus opener outside of the summer and holiday seasons.
The film is also one of the biggest opening weekends of Johnny Depp’s career, second only to Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, which raked in $135.6 million in it’s opening weekend.
