The Top 5 Memorial Day Opening Weekends Of All Time

1. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End

Opening weekend: $139,802,190
The third film in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise came out May 25, 2007 and really broke the bank, at least at first. This is the most a film has made over Memorial Day weekend to date. Critics were harsh on At World’s End, but fans embraced it with scores/grades and money. When all was said and done, it’s total domestic and foreign gross was $963,420,425. That’s certainly impressive, but it still placed it third on the list of Pirates movies, behind Dead Man’s Chest and On Stranger Tides, which both cracked $1 billion worldwide.
