WATCHMEN did OK at the box office its opening weekend.
It’s figured that the film will take in about $55.7 million its first three days, according to Warner Bros.
"Our expectations were met," said Dan Fellman, the studio's president of domestic theatrical distribution. The film was released in 3,611 theaters, a record for an R-rated release.
For comparison, Zack Snyder’s 300 took in $71 million its first weekend two years ago -- a record for a March opening.
