Here's a fun piece of trivia: The Watch Four Riders (Hellfighters of the East) OnlineFate of the Furiousmade more money than the nine other movies behind it in the weekend box office Top 10.
Or how about this one: based on current estimates, The Fate of the Furiousis the owner of the biggest worldwide box office opening of all time, with $532.5 million. It comes in just ahead of previous record-holder Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which opened in 2015 with $529 million.

Assuming that number holds, it's enough for the second-biggest opening in franchise history.
Furious 7, which marked the late series stalwart Paul Walker's final Fastappearance, beats Fateby a wide margin. The 2015 release, which also opened in April, picked up $147.2 million in its first three days.
The Fate of the Furiousis also eyeing yet anotherbig record. It's currently poised to exit the weekend as the third-highest April opening of all time, behind Furious 7at #1 and Disney's live-action adaptation of The Jungle Book($103.3 million) at #2.
Two others from the series -- Fast Five(2011, $86.2 million opening) and Fast & Furious(2009, $71 million opening) -- are also April hits. Both place in the month's Top 10 for all-time box office openings, at #5 and #6, respectively.
In other words: The Fate of the Furiousis an historically massivehit, and the series as a whole continues to prove itself as one of the most bankable blockbusters in Hollywood.
The Boss Babyand Beauty and the Beastclaim the weekend's #2 and #3 spots with $15.5 million and $13.6 million, respectively. Babyhas held up surprisingly well, with an overall lack of family-friendly competition creating an opportunity.
Beauty, now finishing its fifth weekend, creeps ever-closer to a $500 million U.S. box office, with the current weekend estimate bringing it to $454.6. It may struggle to hit that milestone in the weeks ahead, though -- as with Baby-- the relative dearth of competition should help.
Although it's nowhere near breaching the Top 10 with a limited, four-theater opening and only $112,633 in ticket sales, The Lost City of Zis worth a mention. It's Bleecker Street's second distribution deal with an internet streaming partner -- Amazon, in this case.
Previously, Bleecker Street partnered with Netflix on the theatrical release of Beasts of No Nation. That one opened in more theaters -- 31 in its opening weekend, then 21 in its second -- and grossed $90,777 across two weeks.
Lost Cityis already proving to be a better bet, with an opening weekend estimate that exceeds Beasts' lifetime total and in far fewer theaters.
