Simpsons Movie: $30 million opening day

Twentieth Century Fox's official Friday estimate shows The Simpsons Movie made $30 million in the U.S. Box Office on Friday, reports Deadline Hollywood. Being around the sum they hoped to take for the whole weekend, Fox now believes the movie could have an $80+ million opening weekend.

If confirmed, the first-day takings would be good enough for The Simpsons to slot into the Hollywood's Top 17 opening days of all time, right behind the $30.1 mil of Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones.
