Predictably, “Jackass 3D” had no trouble dominating the Friday box office as it positions itself for an opening weekend victory.
The film earned a whopping $21.8 million at the box office Friday. Now within striking distance of a $45-50 million opening weekend, the film will far outperform its predecessors “Jackass: Number Two” ($11.8M opening day, $29M opening weekend) and “Jackass: The Movie” ($9.7M opening day, $22.8M opening weekend).
While the weekend will unquestionably belong to “Jackass,” new release “Red” also managed to garner a solid receipt tally. The film kicked things off with $7.2 million and has a solid chance of crossing the $20 million threshold for the weekend.
