Got a heads up from a local radio station about the Box Office Report of the X-Men Origins: Wolverine. So even that I'm still sick I got up and opened my laptop to check the international Box office. So here is the current box office Chart:

And as compared to past Marvel Movies, Wolverine's solo flick garnered $35M in opening day beating X2: X-Men United's $31.2M on opening and close to Last year's Iron Man that received $35.2M. Despite the Workprint's leakage and the Swine Flu outbreak, Wolverine continues rampaging to the box office. The figures on above chart is not even the whole first week (The movie opened in Friday and Thursday to other territory), so we may expect that we could see more changes on the Box Office hits.
For now, I congratulate 20th Century Fox and Marvel for a job well done. Now imagine if that Wokprint didn't leak, do you think X-Men Origins: Wolverine will get more than $87M well, we will never know.
