When it comes to box office receipts, there are a few agreed upon landmarks that have cemented their presence in Hollywood’s history books. There is of course Jaws, the first ever summer blockbuster, the trendsetter that has helped shape movie release strategy as we know it today. There is also Star Wars, the first film to ever have a rabid fan base. Ten years after Star Wars was released, Batman destroyed box office records and highlighted the importance of a film’s opening weekend. Batman was followed by The Lost World, the sequel to Jurassic Park, which fueled the sequel and franchise craze. In 2002, Spider-Man set the standard for single weekend take and hit a number that will likely not be broken by any film, other than one of its sequels, for a long time to come. More recently, The Passion of the Christ turned the box office world on its head by making back its production budget in one day and bringing in five times its production budget in its first total weekend of release, an unprecedented feat that will likely never be duplicated again. But in between The Lost World and Spider-Man, a film was released that, in its first three days, grossed over 25% more than what any other film had grossed in the same time span. It was the first film to ever make more than $90 million in its first three days; in fact, it was the first ever movie to gross more than $75 million in its first three days. That movie was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
