That’s not a misprint: Despite being another five days away from release here in the states, Paramount opened Iron Man 2 in most foreign countries over the weekend and scored an estimated $100.2 million. For reference, that’s a 26% increase from the original and is just one of the many signs that Iron Man 2 will probably break the $158.4 million opening weekend record held by The Dark Knight . Might be a good idea to pre-order those opening night tickets now. [ LAT /Company Town ]
