No surprise here!
Not only did High School Musical 3: Senior Year come in first at the box office with about $42 million this weekend (Saw V was number 2 with approximately $30.5 mil), it also made two opening day records!
On Friday, the Disney flick raked in $16.9 mil reports Variety... beating out the previous first day records for a musical (held by Hairspray, another Efron pic, which earned $11 million its opening day) AND for a live-action G-rated film (held by Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Tour, which took in $8.7 mil).
Wow, crazy! Congrats to HSM - did you see it? And did you love it?!?
