"Iron Man 2" blacked out everything else in its path, earning $133.6 million for the three-day frame.

The Marvel Entertainment juggernaut didn't bypass "The Dark Knight's" weekend record of $158 million but got close to surpassing "Pirates of the Caribbean 3's" opening of $135.6 million. In actuality, it now stands as the fifth highest opening weekend ever. It should be noted that the 2-D event movie earned 8 percent of its gross from the $10.2 million earned from IMAX theaters.

And though it's a sequel, which often times burns through theaters quicker, this Robert Downey Jr.-starrer scored an A with audiences according to Cinemascore. That will bode well for its theatrical longevity.

Internationally, "Iron Man 2" grossed an additional $57.2 million. Now open across 61 international territories, the movie's international gross stands at $194 million.

The majority of the rest of the top ten fell off quite steeply with "Nightmare on Elm Street" suffering the most from the "Iron Man" competition. The R-rated horror redo dropped off 72 percent from its opening weekend to $9.2 million. The film's total now stands at $48.5 million.

Third place went to "How to Train Your Dragon," which lost its greatest amount since debuting two months ago. The PG-rated kid flick lost 36 percent of its value and earned another $6.7 million, enough to put its cume at $201 million.

Surprisingly, "Iron Man" could do little to throw "Date Night" off its amazing run. The Steve Carell, Tina Fey-starrer lost only 30 percent of its value with an additional $5.3 million. The movie's total has reached $80.8 million.
