According to estimates from Box Office Mojo, Disney's sequel Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest has broken the opening day and highest-grossing day box office records of 2005's Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith ($50 million), earning an estimated $55.5 million on its first Friday.

The way things are going for it, it's almost guaranteed to break Spider-Man's three-day opening weekend record of $114.84 million from 2002.
