Jurassic World raked in an estimated $82.8 million at the box office Friday, a figure Forbes reports is the third-biggest opening day haul of all time. Including late-night Thursday screenings, the blockbuster starring Chris Pratt was surpassed in dough only by Avengers: Age of Ultron and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2.
The film is on pace to possibly take in $200 million on opening weekend. Hold onto your butts.
